When assessing eversion and inversion of the foot, what technique should be used to prevent hip rotation?

A: Apply pressure to the shin

B: Ask the patient to rotate their hip

C: Immobilize the foot

D: Move the foot into the required position

To prevent hip rotation during testing, immobilize the shin with one hand while moving the foot into the desired position (e.g., fully inverted). Then ask the patient to hold the foot in that position and attempt to evert it. This technique ensures accurate assessment of foot movement without interference from hip rotation.
