Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The anterior tibial veins are formed by the venae comitantes, or companion veins, of the dorsalis pedis artery. The posterior tibial veins are formed by the medial and lateral plantar veins and accompany the posterior tibial artery. Veins from the calf muscles drain into posterior tibial veins.

Detailed explanation-2: -Blood from your lower leg drains into your femoral vein, sometimes known as your superficial femoral vein. Your femoral vein then moves this blood into your external iliac vein. From there, blood enters the veins in your abdomen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Structure. The posterior tibial veins receive blood from the medial and lateral plantar veins. They drain the posterior compartment of the leg and the plantar surface of the foot to the popliteal vein, which it forms when it joins with the anterior tibial vein.
