Medical information
LI8 is located in the depression at the medial end of the stifle crease, cranial to the insertion of the semitendinosus muscle, at the level of the medial femoral condyle.
LI8 tonifies liver blood, eliminates dampness and heat, supports hind limb function, and is used for lameness, muscle tension, and gynecological issues.
LI8 should not be needled in horses with local trauma or infection in the stifle area. Use caution in cases of bleeding disorders.
