*interphalangeal joint
***bye bye msucles
midpalmer) what 2 actions does the interossei do?
abduct and adduct the fingers
midpalmer) lumbricles- origins
lateral side of each tendon of the flexor digitorium profundus in palm
midpalmer) lumbricles- inserts
lateral edge of extensor expansion hood on proximal phalanx of fingers 2-5
