Hi there..
Currently I am researching the corrospondence between acupuncture points of traditional chinese medicine and the understand of western anatomy - and I am looking for some help here.
At the moment, the point I am focuses on is called Lung 5. The point is in the crease of elbow just lateral to the bicep tendon at the origin of the brachioradialis muscle. It branches at the radial recurrent artery and cephalic vein and the lateral cutaneous nerve of the forearm directly above the main trunk of the radial nerve.
So I am looking for information about, what possible effects there could be by stimulating/striking/blocking/pressing the:
#1 Cephalic Vein - i know that the vein goes through the deltopectoral triangle - can this affect the muscles in this area or other muscles?
#2 Radial recurrent artery
#3 Is the cutaneous nerve a part of the radial nerve? And what part of the nervous system is this nerve? Sympathic or parasympathic?
I hope you can help me
