Bodily terms

In the body, there are certain terms being used to describe certain parts. I know sounds odd right? Well, let's say that you want to describe what the front of your body looks like, you would use the word like anterior, whereas the back of your body is your posterior. It's really easy to remember because your posterior is behind you, and your anterior is in front of you. This doesn't mean necessarily your complete from of your body, you could say something like your nose is anterior to your eyes, and your eyes are posterior to your nose. Superior is you upper body, and Inferior is your lower body. The same goes for superior and inferior, although we might switch is up, and say something like, your hair is superior to your eyes, unless you have really long hair, then of which something like your hair is superior to you toes. You get the point. Medial, describes a structure towards the body's midline. Lateral is almost the same, only it describes the parts further from the median plane. Intermediate describes a structure in between the medial, and lateral plane. For example, your nose is medial to your ears, your ears are then lateral to your nose. Whereas your cheeks are intermediate of them both. Next, we come to proximal and distal. Both are describing the distance around the "trunk" (torso). Proximal means that something is closer to the torso, and distal means farther. So, we could all agree then that your foot is distal to your knee, and your knee is proximal to your foot. Superficial and deep, pretty obvious when it says deep. Deep, being deeper into your body, or simply away from your skin. And superficial is the opposite of that, being closest to your skin, or just outside of your body. So your heart is deep compared to your ribs, which would than be superficial compared to your heart.
