Let’s talk about the LOAF muscles—not your favorite bakery item, but four key muscles in your hand controlled by the median nerve. LOAF stands for Lumbricals (1st and 2nd), Opponens pollicis, Abductor pollicis brevis, and Flexor pollicis brevis. • These muscles give us the fine motor skills we rely on every day. Imagine you’re grabbing a pen or texting—thanks to the LOAF #muscles, you can bring your thumb across the palm (opposition) and flex, abduct, or extend those first two fingers with ease. Injury to the median nerve, like in carpal tunnel syndrome, can weaken these muscles, making precision tasks tough and giving that classic '#ape hand' appearance due to thumb weakness. • So next time you flex your thumb or pinch, remember, the LOAF muscles are on the job, keeping your hand movements smooth and controlled! • #USMLE • #USMLEPrep • #FutureMD • #MedStudentLife • #MedSchoolJourney • #Step1Study • #Step2CK • #Step3Prep • #USMLESuccess • #StudyMedicine
