Artery II Finger

Artery II The finger is a vessel in the human body that provides blood supply to the tissues and organs of the arm or leg. It is part of the vascular system and plays an important role in maintaining the health and functioning of the body. In this article we will look at the artery of the second finger, its functions, anatomy and possible diseases associated with it.

Anatomy of the artery of the second finger The artery of the second finger begins from the femoral artery and rises up the dorsum of the foot. Then it passes along the back surface of the skin area of ​​​​the toes and descends into the interphalangeal space between the II and III toes. Here it continues along the dorsal lateral surface of the second finger and ends on the nail



The digital plantar artery is the largest artery in the foot and supplies blood to the toes and distal part of the foot. This is an important element of the vascular system, which provides blood to the tissues of the legs and protects them from hemorrhages. It also plays an important role in blood circulation and metabolism.

The digital artery (coming to the foot, to the toe, respectively) is located on the human foot under the skin and is a compacted artery of medium diameter. As a rule, the length of the digital artery is within 3-5 cm, its diameter can be no more than 9 mm. Passing through the thickness of the fatty tissue, the digital artery reaches the toes. In them, the artery gives off branches that form small capillaries, and in the area of ​​the nail, very small vessels, the number of which reaches 20.

Noteworthy is the fact that the digital artery functions in one mode. Its pulsation frequency is about
