Dorsum of foot and toes except lateral side of 5th toe (LPN superficial branch), and between 1st and 2nd toes (Deep Peroneal Nerve)

Motor to Peroneus Longus and Peroneus Brevis (both in leg)

31
Q

what does the sural nerve supply

A

skin of lateral foot

32

supplies the skin of the medial side of the foot reaching distally towards the 1st MTP joint

33
Q

what does the deep fibular nerve supply

A

dorsal skin between the great and second toe

34
Q

what does the superficial fibular nerve supply

A

lateral plantar surface and plantar surface of lateral 1 1/2 toes

36
Q

what does the MPN supply

A

medial plantar surface and plantar surface of medial 3 1/2 toes

37
Q

what does the medial calcaneal nerve supply

A

plantar surface of the heel

38
