BL58 (Feiyang, “Feiyang”) is the Luo-Connecting Point point of the Bladder Meridian. It is located on the posterior aspect of the lower leg, 7 cun directly superior to the prominence of the lateral malleolus, just lateral to the inferior border of the gastrocnemius muscle. It connects the Bladder and Kidney channels, dispels wind-damp from the channel, clears heat, alleviates pain in the lumbar region and leg, and treats hemorrhoids.

As the Luo-Connecting point of the Bladder channel, Feiyang is classically indicated for conditions of both excess and deficiency. Excess is described as stuffy nose, headache, and back pain, while deficiency presents as nosebleed. It is a key distal point for severe lumbar pain, especially when described as feeling 'broken,' and is also frequently cited for treating various types of hemorrhoids and pain in the perineal region. Its ability to treat dizziness and vertigo highlights its function in managing disturbances in the upper body via the extensive Bladder channel.
