A member asked:
When the post tibial tendon is inflammed does it affect the anterior tibialis tendon, are they interconnected? where and how r both tendons examined?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both supinate: The Tibialis Posterior is a large tendon that has extensive insertions in the plantar medial foot. This tendon lifts the medial arch. The Tibialis Anterior inserts of the top of the foot, decelerating the foot on heel strike and assisting in supination of the foot. As far as I am concerned, all muscles and tendons are interconnected in function. If one is ailing, the others have to work harder
