Distributed in the triangular fossa, the corresponding points of the digestive tract are around the crus of the helix.
Auricular points are special parts where the surface of the auricle communicates with the viscera, meridians, tissues and organs, and the trunk and limbs. So if a person is sick, there will be reaction points in the corresponding parts of the ears, which we call ear points.
If you are sick, you may have pathological reactions in the corresponding parts of the ear, such as protruding bumps, induration, desquamation, pain points, congestion, or changes in the shape and color of blood vessels. We can observe our ears based on these abnormal phenomena to judge whether our body is healthy .
