Anyone ever used a TENS machine before?

Do they work?
Is it worth buying one?
I just ordered one, now im in that post decision state of second guessing myself

I have used tens quite a bit and they DO work well on muscle issues / muscle pain. They DO NOT work on Nerve Pain in your spinal areas that are injured or maybe have had surgery on a certain area . Tens actually made the pain worse for me. Overall , TENS is great for strained muscles and very painful muscles, I'd highly recommend it. The cheaper units out now work great.

@heavyone2 oh thanks.
Yeah, i went on a deep dive after one came up in an ad. I checked it out and it looked pathetic.i ended up buying a medical grade one from a long term established company.
It came yesterday. Cant wait to try it out.

Thanks again
