定位。胸部,第 2 肋间隙,前正中线旁开 4 寸。

穴名取屋舍檐翳遮蔽之意,与胃经胸部诸穴命名相承。经典常与 ST14 并举。

Classical record · not a treatment recommendation. Needling technique is a licensed practitioner's skill and is out of scope here.
Over the chest wall with the lung beneath. Needling angle and depth are practitioner concerns, not something a reader should attempt at home.
