The head is located on the symphysis on the border with the pubic joint. The midline of the body runs under the head of the femur, running down the inner thigh to the toes. The area behind the pubic line contains anatomical formations that may be the cause of a urological problem: the spermatic cord, muscles, lymph nodes, nerve endings.
