Tibialis posterior nerve compression
Fortunately, to be able to move a foot, we have muscles that can move the foot. However, it is also important that the foot muscles are controlled. The foot muscles are controlled by nerves. The nerves ensure that a signal is sent to the muscles so that the foot can be moved in the direction you want.
