__________is a catchall term that is commonly used to describe pain in the proximal arch and heel.

Arrange the steps to establish a position of subtalar neutral while looking for structural foot deformity in the correct order of occurrence. (Place the first step at the top.)

1. The patient should be prone with the distal third of the leg hanging off the end of the table 2. A line should be drawn bisecting the leg from the start of the musculotendinous junction of the gastrocnemius to the distal portion of the calcaneus 3. With the patient still prone, the athletic trainer should palpate the talus while the forefoot is inverted and everted 4. One finger should palpate the talus at the anterior aspect of the fibula and another finger at the anterior portion of the medial malleolus 5. The athletic trainer should check if the talus is equally prominent on both sides

Identify a scenario that best illustrates a fracture of the talus.
