Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is primarily used for pain relief and muscle stimulation. It may help with pain management associated with fractures, but it does not directly promote fracture healing. For fractures, it's important to follow the recommended medical treatments prescribed by healthcare professionals.
Electrical nerve stimulation is also known as neuromodulation. It involves using electrical currents to stimulate nerves in order to treat various medical conditions, such as chronic pain or movement disorders.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) uses a battery-powered device generating weak electrical impulses applied along the course of affected nerves to block pain signals traveling to the brain.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is generally considered safe when used properly. However, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and seek guidance from a healthcare provider to ensure correct usage and avoid potential risks such as skin irritation or interference with electronic devices.
