What is Iliacus?
iliacus is a flat triangular muscles that obscures the inner curve of the largest hipbone, or iliac fossa . It is part of a group of internal hip muscle groups called Iliopsoas or "Iliopsoas". In humans, the Iliopsoas Group is important for position, walking, running and turning the pelvis or "flexion of the hip". Of the five muscles that contribute to the flexion of the hip, iliacus is the only one attached to the pelvis; It plays a major role in the control of the hip joint and is important for bending the leg forward.
Iliopsoas is a group of three muscles: Iliacus, PSOAS Major and PSOAS minor. Usually people call this group "dorsal hips" or "inner muscles of the hip". Iliacus lies behind PSOAS Major. It starts at the upper two thirds of the iliac fossa and on the inner edge of the curved ridge at the top of the pelvic bone or iliac ridge . It connects to the Major PSOAS, continues and connects the SEK to the smaller trochanter of the upper femur.
This connection between the bone of the hip and the foot is HLAthe part of the hip movement. The hip flexion uses five muscles - tensor fascia Latae, rectus femoris, sartorius, main pSOAS and ILACUS. Of these five muscles, only PSOAS and ILACUS are able to lift the upper leg to the torso, which is often necessary in sports, exercise and dance.
Often the sedentary lifestyle weakens these muscles or causes them to tighten and become inferior. Sometimes runners who do not start with warm -up exercises or run wrong can also have weak or tight flexors Iliopsoas HIP. The weak muscles Iliopsoas usually offer poor support and tight muscles can cause the pelvis to lean forward, creating posture.
about five percent of football players will damage this muscle because the hip movement controls the player during the kicks. Other activities that are ripe for these injuries include bending, jumping, running and squat. Most injured players experience tendonitis, bUsitis or tears of muscle. Physical therapy usually includes exercises such as knee folds for folds, Pilate's exercises and various sections. Surgical treatment is usually rare.
Sometimes doctors, such as physiotherapists and doctors, describe Iliopsoas as "complex" and call it a "hidden prankster". For example, just like about 40 percent of people have smaller PSOAS muscles, some people have other muscles - Iliacus minor or ilocapsularis . This muscle is a small, separate part of a larger muscle.
