Gracilis Pain
The Gracilis muscle’s fibers run vertically downward, passing behind to the medial condyle of the femur, curving around the medial condyle of the tibia, and inserts into the upper part of the medial surface of the tibia, below the condyle (Confusing but see pic below). Because of its attachment the Gracilis muscle is considered a Ad-doctor.
