OK.
Anteriorlateral of the leg to dorsum of the foot is the projection of anterior tibial artery, it turns into a. dorsalis pedis. Dorsiflexion hurts him bc by doing so you are contracting the dorsiflexor musculatures, compressing the anterior tibial artery, which lies profound to those muscles. Swelling and pain is a indication of necrosis.
The cause is probably muscular hypertrophy or contracture.
A) supplies the peroneal musculature and planter flexors, coming from posterior tibial artery
c) clearly not it
d) popliteal artery compression will result in many more deficits
e) comes from posterior tibial artery, has nothing to do with the above mentioned deficits.
