Selection of nearby points refers to selecting points in the lord area and the adjacent area of the disease. All the points selected can treat the disease of the local area and adjacent area. For instance, Jingming(BL.1) is selected for eye disease, YingXiang(LI20) for nose disease, Tinggong(SI19) for ear disease, and Zhongwan(CV12) for epigastric disease. This is called the selection of local points, it is mainly used for chronic diseases. When there are ulcer, injury and scar in the local area of disease, accupuncture may not be applied; points of the adjacent area can be selected. Selection of adjacent points refers to selecting points inthe adjacent area of disease, for example, Yintang(EX-HN3) and Shangxing(DU23) are selected for nose disease; Qihai(CV6) and Tianshu(ST25) for gastric disorder. This is chiefly employed for diseases of Zang-Fu organs and five sense organs.
