There was probably k-k dis. in:

kis.ku- (m/f) = forearm S; kis^kà = hollow of the knee Lith; ciska = loin/thigh/hip/haunch Latv; ískhion (n s) = hip-joint \ (du/p) = haunches, ixús (f) = waist, ixuóthen (adv) = from the loins G;


So separate from:

ossu- = bone L; osphús = hip/loin / lower back G;
as.t.hi:vá- = shank/shin S; asc[u]va- = shank Av; c^iw = shank/leg Ar;

etc.
