Which Liver point is located 7 cun above the prominence of the medial malleolus, immediately posterior to the medial border of the tibia, in the depression between the medial border of the tibia and the gastrocnemius muscle?

• A. LV 9
• B. LV 7
• C. LV 8
• D. LV 6

Answer: (D)

The position described is a lower-leg point located on the medial, posterior side of the leg, in a shallow depression between the medial border of the tibia and the gastrocnemius, 7 cun above the medial malleolus. This is the exact description for Liver point six. The Liver channel runs up the medial aspect of the leg, and this particular point sits in that distal region where the tibia and gastrocnemius form a natural depression. The other Liver points listed lie in different locations along the leg or knee, not in this posterior-medial depression at that distance from the ankle, so they don’t fit the description as precisely.
