The lower leg, or just “leg” in anatomical terms, is the part of the lower limb between the knee and the ankle joint.
The femur bone is the strongest and longest bone in the body, occupying the space of the lower limb, between the hip and knee joints. Femur anatomy is so unique that it makes the bone suitable for supporting the numerous muscular and ligamentous attachments within this region, in addition to...
such as that felt in the radial artery at the wrist. Other sites for pulse measurement include the side of the neck (carotid artery), the antecubital fossa (brachial artery), the temple (temporal artery), the anterior side of the hip bone (femoral artery), the back of the knee (poplit...
The width of the foot is equal to the width of the knee. The axis of the supporting lower limb is tilted from the vertical position so the center of gravity of the model’s body is located just above the engaged footprint. The shinbone of the lower leg gives a characteristic contour ...

It supports the weight of the body and helps you move. Reaching from the hip to the knee, the femur is extremely hard and not easy to break. A broken thigh bone is one of the few simple fractures that can be considered life-threatening because it can cause significant internal bleeding....
