Which point is the Jing Well on the Lung meridian?

The Jing Well point on the Lung meridian is LU11. Jing Well points are the first points on the meridians and are located at the tips of the fingers and toes. They are particularly significant in acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine as they are believed to help with issues related to the corresponding organ, influence the flow of Qi, and can promote a state of balance within the body.

For the Lung meridian, LU11 is located on the radial side of the thumb, at the corner of the nail bed. This positioning aligns with the characteristics of Jing Well points, which serve to clear heat, promote circulation, and are often used to treat conditions involving the lungs or respiratory system, as well as other systemic issues.

In contrast, LU1 is the front mu point for the lung and is located on the chest, making it significant for different clinical applications than LU11. LI1 and ST45 are Jing Well points for their respective meridians (Large Intestine and Stomach). However, they are not related to the Lung meridian. Each point has specific therapeutic uses, but only LU11 fits the criteria for being the Jing Well point of the Lung meridian.
