plantar flexion
Subject: plantar flexion
Okay - maybe this is a stupid question, but dorsiflexion is a word - I looked it up in Dorland's (but I have an older version). But, plantarflexion seems not to be a word; I thought it was - modeling it after dorsiflexion. So, is plantarflexion a real word or is it just plantar flexion?
