Chongmen (SP12)

Inguinal crease / groin — Spleen channel point, right representative

Chongmen is SP12 in the inguinal fold, and the right-side point stands for its bilateral pair. This groin location is included because dian xue accounts repeatedly classify the inguinal and femoral passage as vulnerable, but its proximity to vessels and nerves makes any contact hazardous.

Dianxue / shixue passages in classical quan pu (primary_canonical)

Ming–Qing dianxue/shixue quan pu, in heterogeneous point-striking passages concerning sp12 chongmen, preserves a martial vulnerability vocabulary and lineage claim; contested attribution means it is not a single canonical chart or a clinically validated effect.
