Joint Subtalar

The subtalar joint is a complex joint that connects the talus (supraheel) bone to the heel bone. It is located between the talus and calcaneus bones and plays an important role in stability and movement.

This joint consists of two joints: the talonavicular and talocalcaneal. The talonavicular joint connects between the talus and the navicular bone, and the talocalcaneal joint connects between the talus and the calcaneus.

The main function of the subtalar joint is to provide stability and movement in the ankle, as well as participate in maintaining balance. In addition, it provides shock absorption when walking, which reduces the load on the joints and muscles of the legs.

For normal functioning of the subtalar joint, it is necessary to monitor its condition, avoid injuries and overloads, and undergo regular examinations by a doctor.
