When home treatment does not work, medical treatment for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) syndrome includes dental splints, Botox injections, physical therapy, prescription medications, and in severe cases, surgery.
The fibula (/ËfÉªbjáµ¿lÉ/) or calf bone is a leg bone located on the lateral side of the tibia, with which it is connected above and below. It is the smaller of the two bones, and, in proportion to its length, the slenderest of all the long bones.
Your fibula, that long bone on the outer part of your lower leg, does not bear weight through your ankle. It only helps to make up the lateral wall of your ankle joint. There are 4 motions of your ankle: dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, inversion, and eversion. Several muscles attach near your ankle and help it move. Your ankle also has ligaments that attach one bone to another. These ligaments help prevent excessive motion around your ankle joint.
