Medical information

GB42 is located distally on the metatarsus, laterally between the 4th and 5th metatarsal bones, proximal to the fetlock joint line.

GB42 is used for treating lameness, local pain, and supporting lateral mobility of the hind limb. It also influences the Gallbladder meridian and can be helpful in cases of stagnation along the meridian pathway.

When treating GB42, be aware of the proximity to sensitive structures such as tendons and vessels. Aseptic technique and gentle stimulation are recommended.
