LR-5 is a great point for genital problems, with pain and pruritus. We treat the main channel first.

• Transverse Luo: from LR-5 to GB-40.
• Longitudinal Luo forms a network that ascends along the medial aspect of the leg, more or less following the pathway of the main channel and branches into the external genitalia.

Symptoms

• Excess: priapism (usually neurological), sexual hyperactivity.
• Deficiency: genital pruritus.
