What is "shank"?
the shank refers to the lower part of the leg, specifically the portion between the knee and the ankle. It includes the tibia and fibula, which are the two long bones that form the lower leg. The shank plays a crucial role in weight-bearing, stability, and locomotion, allowing for walking, running, and other lower-limb movements. Understanding the anatomy and function of the shank is important for overall lower limb strength, balance, and mobility.
