Which BL point lies 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the spinous process of the second thoracic vertebra (T2)?

Which BL point lies 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the spinous process of the second thoracic vertebra (T2)?

• A. BL-11
• B. BL-13
• C. BL-12
• D. BL-14

Answer: (C)

Back-shu points on the bladder channel are located along the back, about 1.5 cun to the side of the spinous processes at specific thoracic levels. The description places the point 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the spinous process of the second thoracic vertebra, which corresponds to the bladder point at that level. That point is BL-12. So the location given matches BL-12 precisely. The nearby levels would align with adjacent bladder points at other thoracic vertebrae.
