Answer:

We can tell the patient to lay straight with the face directed outward. We will tell the patient to lay the arms at the sides. we will further tell the patient to place his/her palms facing forward. The head and the eyes should also face forward. This position makes it easier for the physician to analyze any body part in a stance. It is easier to understand what part of the body is being talked about in this position.
