Anatomy of Lower Extremities Points 43-58
Question | Answer |
---|---|
LR-5 | 5 cun above tip of medial malleolus, on medial border of tibia |
SP-6 | 3 cun above tip of medial malleolus, on posterior border of medial aspect of tibia |
KD-7 | 2 cun directly above KD-3, on anterior border of tendo calcaneus (Achilles tendon) |
GB-39 | 3 cun above tip of EXTERNAL malleolus, in depression between posterior border of fibula & tendons of m. peroneus brevis & longus |
KD-3 | In depression between medial malleolus and tendo calcaneus, at level with tip of medial malleolus |
KD-4 | Posterior/inferior to medial malleolus, in depression medial to attachment of tendo calcaneus. (Needle passes between Achilles tendon & calcaneus) |
SP-5 | Depression distal & inferior to medial malleolus, midway between tuberosity of navicular bone & tip of medial malleolus |
LR-4 | 1 cun anterior to medial malleolus, midway between SP-5 and ST-41, in depression on medial side of tendon of m. tibialis anterior. |
ST-41 | On dorsum of foot, at midpoint of transverse crease of ankle joint, in depression between tendons of extensor digitorum longus & hallucis longus m., approximately at level of tip of EXTERNAL malleolus |
KD-6 | In depression on lower border of medial malleolus. Or, 1 cun below medial malleolus. |
UB-60 | In depression between EXTERNAL malleolus & tendocalcaneus. |
UB-62 | In depression directly below EXTERNAL malleolus |
UB-63 | Anterior & inferior to UB-62, in depression lateral to cuboid bone |
GB-40 | Anterior & inferior to EXTERNAL malleolus, in depression lateral to tendon of m. extensor digitorum longus. |
ST-42 | Distal to ST-41, at HIGHEST POINT OF DORSUM OF FOOT, in depression between 2MT & 3MT & cuneiform bone. |
GB-41 | In depression distal to junction of 4MT & 5MT bones, on LATERAL side of tendon of m. extensor digiti minimi |
SP-4 | Depression distal & inferior to base of 1MT bones, JORAWS. |
LR-3 | Dorsum of foot, depression distal to junction of 1MT & 2MT bones. |
SP-3 | Proximal & inferior to head of 1MT, JORAWS |
SP-6 | Contraindicated during pregnancy |
UB-60 | Contraindicated during pregnancy (except for difficult labor) |
ST-42 | "Avoid puncturing (peroneal? tibial?) artery" |
LR-5 | Sub-Q insertion upwards toward knee (0.3-0.5 cun). Fox said both this point and SP-6 you can "slide along the bone"-- but I am pretty sure this doesn't mean needle actually grazes bone. |
SP-6 | Thread down to GB-39 (although I don't think he does this) |
ST-41 | "Analogous to SJ-4 as far as dorsal creases of hand/feet go" |
LR-4 | "Very close to SP-5"-- even on the medial side of tendon (tibialis anterior) (ST-41 is between tendons-- but they are hallucis longus & digitorum longus) |
LR-5 | On same level as KD-9 but medial border of tibia (5 cun above tip of MM) |
GB-40 | Lateral side mirror (more or less) to SP-5's medial point |
UB-60 | Lateral side mirror to KD-3's medial point |
