Which acupuncture point is between 1 and 2 cun distal to Yanglingquán GB-34 on the right leg?

• A. Bafeng
• B. Heding
• C. Dannangxue
• D. Lanweixue

Answer: (C)

Distal along a meridian means toward the end of the limb following the channel. From Yanglingquán (GB-34) on the lateral knee, the point located about 1–2 cun further down the leg along the Gallbladder channel is Dannangxue. This point sits in that segment of the GB meridian and is used for issues along the gallbladder channel and lower leg regions. The other named points lie in different areas or on different channels (for example, Bafeng are on the toes, while Lanweixue is associated with the abdomen), so they don’t match the described location.
