There are forty-five acupoints in the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian, starting from Chengqi (Chengqi, ST1), followed by Sibai (Sibai, ST2), Juliao (Juliao, ST3), and Dicang (Dicang, ST4); then Daying (Daying, ST5) and Jiache (Jiache, ST6); descending through Touwei (Touwei, GB8 - *Note: Text lists Touwei here but it is GB8, though often discussed in context of head/neck meridians, strictly following text order*), Renying (Renying, ST9), Shuitu (Shuitu, ST10), Qishe (Qishe, ST11), and Quepen (Quepen, ST12); Qihu (Qihu, ST13), Fukuang (Fukuang, ST14), Wuyi (Wuyi, ST15), Yingchuang (Yingchuang, ST16), then Ruzhong (Ruzhong, ST17) and Rugen (Rugen, ST18); Burong (Burong, ST21), Chengman (Chengman, ST22), Liangmen (Liangmen, ST23), Guanmen (Guanmen, ST24), Taiyi (Taiyi, ST25), and Runiwomen (Runiwomen, ST26); Tianshu (Tianshu, ST25), Wailing (Wailing, ST29); Daju (Daju, ST30), Shuidao (Shuidao, ST28), Guilai (Guilai, ST29); Qichong (Qichong, ST30) enters the region of Biguan (Biguan, ST31), Futu (Futu, ST32), Yinshi (Yinshi, ST33), and Liangqiu (Liangqiu, ST34); Dubi (Dubi, ST35) leads down to Zusanli (Zusanli, ST36); Shangjuxu (Shangjuxu, ST37, also known as Shanglian) and Tiaokou (Tiaokou, ST38), Xiajuxu (Xiajuxu, ST39, also known as Xialian) and Fenglong (Fenglong, ST40); Jiexi (Jiexi, ST41) and Chongyang (Chongyang, ST42) enter Xiangu (Xiangu, ST43), ending finally with Neiting (Neiting, ST44) and Lidui (Lidui, ST45).
The meridian of the Stomach belongs to the Foot-Yangming. Chengqi (Chengqi, ST1) is found seven fen below the eye; Sibai (Sibai, ST2) is one cun below the eye; Juliao (Juliao, ST3) is eight fen beside the nostril; Dicang (Dicang, ST4) is close to four fen flanking the corner of the mouth. Daying (Daying, ST5) is located one cun three fen below the mandible angle; Jiache (Jiache, ST6) is eight fen below the ear; Xiaguan (Xiaguan, ST7) is where the artery beats in front of the ear; Touwei (Touwei, GB8) is four cun five fen lateral to Shenting (Shenting, GV24) (*Note: Shenting is a Governor Vessel point, located five fen above the hairline on the midline, Touwei is four cun five fen from Shenting*). Renying (Renying, ST9) is truly located one cun five fen lateral to the larynx; Shuitu (Shuitu, ST10) is in front of the tendon, located below Daying; Qishe (Qishe, ST11) is a point adjacent below Shuitu (*Note: Qishe is below Shuitu*); Quepen (Quepen, ST12) is inside the transverse bone of the clavicular fossa, clearly one cun half away from the midline on each side. Qihu (Qihu, ST13) is four cun lateral to Xuanji (Xuanji, CV15), reaching six cun four fen to the nipple; Fukuang (Fukuang, ST14), Wuyi (Wuyi, ST15), and Yingchuang (Yingchuang, ST16) are arranged closely, while Ruzhong (Ruzhong, ST17) is exactly at the center of the nipple. Next, Rugen (Rugen, ST18) emerges below the nipple, each spaced one cun six fen apart without interfering (*Note: From Qihu to Rugen, there are six points, vertically spaced one cun six fen apart, four cun from the midline Conception Vessel*), leaving the midline by four cun, as stated previously for these points. Burong (Burong, ST21) is three cun lateral to Juque (Juque, CV14) (*Note: Juque is a Conception Vessel point, six cun five fen above the umbilicus*), moving down to Youmen (Youmen, KI21) one cun five fen newly set (*Note: Youmen is a Kidney Meridian point, one cun five fen lateral to Juque, situated between the Stomach Meridian and Conception Vessel*); below them are Chengman (Chengman, ST22) and Liangmen (Liangmen, ST23), Guanmen (Guanmen, ST24), Taiyi (Taiyi, ST25), and Runiwomen (Runiwomen, ST26), with an interval of one cun up and down, collectively three cun from the midline. Tianshu (Tianshu, ST25) is between two cun lateral to the umbilicus, Wailing (Wailing, ST29) is installed one cun below Tianshu, Daju (Daju, ST30) is the point two cun below Tianshu, Shuidao (Shuidao, ST28) is complete four cun below Tianshu, and Guilai (Guilai, ST29) is good six cun below Tianshu, all on the edge two cun from the midline. Qichong (Qichong, ST30) is one cun above the Shuxi (*Note: Shuxi refers to the end of the transverse bone*, commonly associated with the inguinal region), specifically four cun from the midline; Biguan (Biguan, ST31) is two cun above the knee (chi er), Futu (Futu, ST32) is six cun above the knee, Yinshi (Yinshi, ST33) is three cun above the knee, and Liangqiu (Liangqiu, ST34) is recorded at two cun above the knee. Dubi (Dubi, ST35) exists in the depression of the kneecap, Zusanli (Zusanli, ST36) is reached three cun below the knee, Shanglian (Shanglian, ST37) is at seven cun below the knee (*Text says 6 cun for Shanglian in some contexts but here links to Shangjuxu/Shanglian relationship, text says "knee down 6 cun Shanglian", wait, standard is Shangjuxu 6 cun below Dubi/Zusanli? No, Zusanli is 3 cun below Dubi. Shangjuxu is 6 cun below Zusanli. The text says "Knee down 6 cun Shanglian". Let's stick to text translation*: knee down six cun is Shanglian point), Tiaokou (Tiaokou, ST38) tastes at seven cun below the knee, and look at Xialian (Xialian, ST39) at eight cun below the knee. Nine cun below the knee binds Fenglong (Fenglong, ST40), which is measured from eight cun above the ankle. Connecting outside that Xialian, Jiexi (Jiexi, ST41) is six cun half away from Ting (*Note: Ting refers to Neiting*), Chongyang (Chongyang, ST42) changes five cun behind Neiting, Xiangu (Xiangu, ST43) is between two cun behind Neiting, Neiting (Neiting, ST44) appears in the outer space between the second toes (*In the depression outside the second toe*), and Lidui (Lidui, ST45) is at the tip of the big toe and second toe, judged as the Jing-Well point of the Stomach meridian where the distance to the nail is like a leek leaf (*Note: Xuanji is a Conception Vessel point name*).
