Course
The nerve to quadratus femoris is a sacral plexus nerve. It arises from the ventral divisions of the fourth and fifth lumbar and first sacral nerves: it leaves the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen, below the piriformis muscle, and runs down in front of the sciatic nerve, the superior and inferior gemellus muscles, and the tendon of the obturator internus, and enters the anterior surfaces of the muscles; it gives an articular branch to the hip-joint.

gollark: <@!665722810630406202> > how much are you willing to spend on new ones?I was just mentioning them because they seemed to spontaneously make quiet beeping noises, which was mildly weird. It seems to have stopped now. I'm not really looking to buy new headphones. Or, well, I actually was looking at getting a headset with a usable microphone thing, but that's unrelated.
gollark: The barometers probably aren't very *accurate*, generally.
gollark: I have an app which tells me which satellites it's using.
gollark: Yep!
