Tom, Dick and Harry Muscles

Anatomy Lesson
Written By Alyssa Herrera-Set

Muscles that run along the inside edge of your ankle. PTs remember them as Tom (Tibialis posterior), Dick (flexor Digitorum), and Harry (flexor Hallucis longus). Special shout out to the Flexor Hallucis Longus (FHL) because it gets irritated often with the athletes and dancers we see in the clinic.
