Location

On the dorsum of the palm, between and distal to the second and third phalangeal-carpal joints..

Cautions

Anticoagulant therapy or a coagulopathy raises the risk of haematoma at the needling site – apply prolonged pressure on withdrawal. The precaution governs technique; bleeding disorders remain a treatable indication.
