His son asked if he would like to wear a tux for the occasion. My husband said (at my suggestion) that he would just wear a suit since he is not actually in the wedding. Well, his son's step-father does not own a suit and is planning to rent a tux because it will be cheaper. Now my husband thinks he should get a tux since the step-father will be wearing one as well.
It extends from the pubic symphysis, pubic crest and pubic tubercle inferiorly, to the xiphoid process and costal cartilages of ribs V to VII superiorly. The rectus abdominis muscle is contained in the rectus sheath, which consists of the aponeuroses of the lateral abdominal muscles. muscle strain occurs when the muscle is stretched too far. When this occurs the muscle fibers are torn. Most commonly, a strain causes microscopic tears within the muscle, but occasionally, in severe injuries, the muscle can rupture from its attachment.
Other names for the xiphoid process are processus xiphoideus, ensiform or xiphoid appendix. It rests at the 10th thoracic vertebra. It is the tiniest and lowest part of the sternum. Unlike the other two parts of the sternum namely manubrium and body, there are costal cartilages and ribs that are attached to the xiphoid process. 1  Attached to the anterior surface of the xiphoid process are the anterior costoxiphoid ligament and a section of the rectus abdominis muscle.
