Insertion: extensor expansions on the dorsal of digits 2-5. Action: extension of all joints of digits 2-5. Assists in wrist extension. Innervation: radial nerve

Extensor carpi radialis brevis

Superficial extensor muscle occupying the posterior compartment of the forearm. Origin: common extensor tendon on the anterior surface of the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. Insertion: dorsal surface of the base of metacarpal 3. Action: extension and assists in abduction of the wrist. Innervation: radial nerve

Flexor carpi ulnaris

Superficial flexor muscle occupying the anterior compartment of the forearm. 2 heads: Humeral and Ulnar Humeral head origin: common flexor tendon of the medial epicondyle of the humerus. Ulnar head origin: by an aponeurosis from the proximal two thirds of the posterior ulna. Insertion: pisiform bone and by ligaments to the hamate bone and metacarpal 5. Action: Flexion and adduction of the wrist. Innervation: ulnar nerve
