What 肢 means
A limb, usually in a compound.
《說文解字》, an early Chinese character dictionary, records 胑 for the body's four limbs and 肢 as a variant with 支 replacing 只. 肉 marks the body; 支 supplies sound.
When should you use 肢?
Use it for limbs; Japanese also uses it for choices.
Chinese uses 四肢, 肢体, 上肢 and 下肢; 手脚 is more casual. In Japanese, 選択肢 means an answer choice.

Questions people ask
1Why does 肢 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
