Which acupuncture point is located on the dorsum of the foot between the toes, about 0.5 cun proximal to the margin of the web?

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

Answer: (A)

These eight points sit on the dorsum of the foot between the toes, about 0.5 cun proximal to the margin of the web. That exact location defines the Bafeng points, a set of eight widely taught toe–between–toes points used for local issues of the toes and the front part of the foot. So the option named Bafeng is the best match because it refers to this specific group and placement.

The other points come from different areas and contexts. Lanweixue is a point used for abdominal or intestinal concerns, not located between the toes. Heding is located on the hand, between the first and second fingers. Dannangxue is another foot point but not in the toe-between-toes group, so it doesn’t fit the described location.
