Hi all,

Has anyone ever used a tens machine for neuralgia in the face? If so, how did you find it?

Thanks ❤️

I have to ask you what is a tens machine?

It’s a machine that sticks to your skin and uses a small electrical current to relieve pain whilst you’re using it ☺️

Thank you for that information and the answer to your question is no I have not ever used one.

I haven’t but I have seen one in use. By a nurse who had to use it all the time. Apparently it really helped. It had special facial electrodes though so I don’t think ordinary pads would work.
