Objective : The Meridian sinew is one of the meridian subsystems, which includes muscles distributed on the twelve meridian. This study was performed to understand which muscle is falling under ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯.
Methods: We have studied the literatures on meridian sinew theory and searched muscles which correspond to ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯ in anatomical muscular system. And we researched myofascial pain syndrome about the symptoms of the muscles falling under ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯. Lastly we compared ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯ with ¡¯Deep Frontal Line¡¯ - one of the anatomical trains.
Results & Conclusion: 1.It is considered that ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯ includes flexor digitorum brevis muscle, abductor hallucis muscle, medial head of gastrocnemius muscle, flexor digitorum longus muscle, adductor muscle, iliopsoas muscle, erctor spinae muscle. 2.The symptoms of ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯ are similar to the myofascial pain syndrome with referred pain of the muscles falling under ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯. 3. ¡¯Deep frontal line¡¯ is similar to ¡¯Foot lesser yin meridian sinew¡¯, but not exactly in neck & pelvic muscles.
