@RetiredEngineer and @Nurse3
I searched TENS units, and your names came up, and I remembered your posts.
How are the TENS units working out? Are they relieving the pain?
I saw one for $30 at Walgreens, but it looked a little iffy.
Should I go for a more expensive one?
Should I even spend the money on one? (It's for neck pain)
 
Thanks! 4951

I haven't used my TENS unit since my bypass surgery.  Before that, it did help ease my lower back pain.  It's kind of an electronic massage.  I intend to start using it again soon.  TENS units differ by how many paddles they use and how many features/adjustments it has.  For neck pain, you probably don't need more than 4 paddles (they work in pairs).  If you get one with more paddle sets, you can just unplug the ones you don't need.  Mine has three types of electronic pulses and you can adjust the intensity of each set of paddles.  The paddles have an adhesive that sticks to the skin but can fairly easily be removed and reused.  If you like the unit, you will need to eventually get extra paddles as the adhesive does wear out.You might look at Amazon.com to compare features and prices.  To me, it is well worth the price!@dotti573's husband is using one for his back pain and he has gotten some relief.Good luck! 4951

My DD using his daily and it does help.  He puts it on before he goes to work and again when he comes in at night.  Every thing @Retired_Engineer said is true about them. 4951

I have one from walgreens and it works just fine. I like that one because the pads are small and you can put them around your neck easily. 4951

I was trying to guess without googling what the "TENS unit" acronym was, and came up with "The Electric Nipple Stimulation" unit.  Am I close? 4951
