  • Phalanges: Location and Anatomy of Finger & Toe Bones
    The phalanges are located in both the hands and the feet. They are the small bones that make up the fingers and toes.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Hands: Each hand has 14 phalanges, 3 in each finger (proximal, middle, and distal) except the thumb which only has 2 (proximal and distal).

    * Feet: Each foot also has 14 phalanges, with the same arrangement as the hands: 3 in each toe except the big toe, which only has 2.

    Let me know if you have any other questions!
