Function
In contrast to the shinbone, the fibula does not have a major supporting function. It is mainly used as a point of attachment and origin for muscles and tendons. However, the fibula is involved in the ankle joint and transmits forces to the foot via the outer ankle. The fibula also serves as a further anchor point for the shinbone and stabilises it.
