Basics
What term describes movement away from the midline?
Abduction
The calcaneofibular ligament primarily resists:
inversion
A valgus force injures which ligament most commonly?

acetabular labrum
Pain above the ankle with external rotation indicates what injury?
Syndesmosis sprain
A patient is standing upright, feet facing forward, palms facing forward. This position is called:

A muscle that crosses and acts on two joints is:
Biarticular
Pain posterior to lateral malleolus with resisted eversion suggests involvement of what structure(s)?
Fibularis/peroneal tendons
Normal Q-angle in females is typically:
