There is no such thing as one of the most feared acupoints for colds. Commonly used acupoints for treating colds include the Hegu acupoint, the Daxian acupoint, and the Fengchi acupoint. 1. Hegu acupoint: between the 1st and 2nd metacarpal bones on the back of the hand, at the midpoint of the radial side of the second metacarpal bone. It is mainly used for treating cold and fever, headache, sore throat, redness and swelling of the eyes, epistaxis (nosebleed), hematemesis and toothache. 2. Great Vertebral Point: located in the depression under the spinous process of the 7th cervical vertebra. It is mainly used for treating colds, fever, cough, asthma, tidal fever (a burst of fever, feeling that the heat is coming from inside the bones to the outside), strong neck, shoulder and back pain, and pediatric convulsion (a pediatric disease mainly manifested by dizziness, convulsions and seizures). 3. Fengchi acupoint: located in the area behind the neck, below the occipital bone, in the depression between the upper end of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and the upper end of the trapezius muscle. It is used for treating stroke, epilepsy, headache, dizziness, tinnitus, deafness, cold, nasal congestion, congested epistaxis, redness and swelling of the eyes, crookedness of the mouth and eyes, and strong pain in the neck. If needling the above points is required, it needs to be operated by a professional doctor.
