Shin

**The tibia is** one of the large bones of the lower leg, which consists of two elements - the medial and lateral tibia. On the lateral side is the condyle, which is responsible for fixing the tendons to the inside of the foot, and on the medial side is the medial tibia on the side of the foot. The tibia is attached to the femur by the upper thigh attachment. The tendons are attached to the lower leg above the height of the joints, allowing the foot to flex at the connection with the lower part of the thigh.

**The importance of the lower leg in the human body** is the formation of articular connections between the leg and foot, as well as its flexibility. The lower limbs provide a person with the ability to move and perform various body movements in all directions. * For example, we can get up from a sitting position or sitting on a chair. The shins also help us maintain balance when standing.
