The Tibialis Muscles, which include the tibialis anterior and tibialis posterior, are important muscles in the lower leg with significant relevance in orthopaedics. The tibialis anterior, located on the front of the leg, plays a vital role in dorsiflexion of the ankle and supports the control of foot movement during walking and running. Orthopedic assessments often involve evaluating the tibialis anterior in cases of foot drop, shin splints, or other gait-related issues. The tibialis posterior, situated on the inner side of the leg, is a key stabilizer of the foot arch and aids in plantarflexion and inversion of the ankle. In orthopaedics, this muscle is frequently assessed in cases of posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD), a condition affecting the stability of the foot arch. Rehabilitation strategies for tibialis muscle-related issues in orthopaedics may include exercises to strengthen these muscles, addressing imbalances, and optimizing foot biomechanics. Physical therapists work to enhance ankle stability and function, contributing to improved gait and overall lower limb health.
