Which point is located on the sole of the foot, between the second and third metatarsal bones, approximately one third of the distance from the base of the second toe to the heel, in a depression formed when the foot is plantar flexed?

• A. KD 1
• B. KD 2
• C. BL 66
• D. BL 67

Answer: (A)

This item tests locating the Kidney channel’s Jing-Well point. The first point on this channel, Yong Quan, is specifically placed on the sole in the small hollow that forms when the foot is plantar flexed. It’s described as the depression between the second and third metatarsal bones, about one-third of the distance from the base of the second toe toward the heel. That exact description matches this location, making it the correct choice. The other options lie in different areas or on different channels (for example, points on the Bladder channel near other parts of the foot) and do not correspond to the sole depression described for this Kidney Jing-Well point.
