Which point is on the ulnar border of the little finger, just distal to the metacarpo-phalangeal joint?

• A. SI 2
• B. HT 4
• C. HT 7
• D. SI 3

Answer: (A)

The point being tested is the location of a Small Intestine channel point on the little finger. On the ulnar border of the little finger, just distal to the metacarpo-phalangeal joint, sits SI-2. This is the second point along the SI channel in the hand, located in a small hollow on the pinky side just beyond where the finger meets the hand. The other options are located in different positions—either closer to the wrist along the ulnar border (or on another meridian)—so they don’t match this exact location.
