However, we have an uncomfortable feeling that there have been too many "minimi" allowed into the water recently.
The plantar surface of the base is grooved for the tendon of the abductor digiti quinti, and gives origin to the flexor digiti minimi brevis.
Extensor digiti minimi is in the fifth, and extensor carpi ulnaris is in the 6th.
On its lower edge on either side are its lateral and medial processes (serving as the origins of the abductor hallucis and abductor digit minimi).
Arising from the base of the fifth metatarsal, flexor digiti minimi is inserted together with abductor on the first phalanx.
The largest and longest muscles of the little toe is the abductor digiti minimi.
Often absent, opponens digiti minimi originates near the cuboid bone and is inserted on the fifth metatarsal bone.
The considerably smaller flexor digiti minimi brevis on the lateral side can be mistaken for one of the interossei.
