A Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation machine is generally safe, but there are certain situations where it should not be used due to potential risks. Here are the main contraindications (conditions where TENS should be avoided):
Pacemakers or Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators (ICDs)
Electrical impulses from TENS may interfere with these devices, causing malfunctions.
Pregnancy (on the abdomen or lower back, unless supervised by a doctor)
TENS is sometimes used for labor pain, but improper use could stimulate premature contractions.
Epilepsy (if electrodes are placed on the head or neck)
Electrical stimulation near the brain may trigger seizures in some individuals.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) or Active Blood Clots
Stimulation could dislodge a clot, leading to a pulmonary embolism or stroke.
Over Malignant Tumors (Cancerous Areas)
Electrical stimulation might increase blood flow and theoretically promote tumor growth.
Over the Carotid Sinus (Neck Area)
Could affect blood pressure or heart rhythm.
Open Wounds, Infected Skin, or Dermatological Conditions (e.g., eczema, psoriasis at electrode sites)
May worsen irritation or cause burns.
Recent Surgical Sites (unless approved by a doctor)
Could interfere with healing or cause discomfort.
Heart Conditions (e.g., arrhythmias, uncontrolled hypertension)
Electrical stimulation might affect heart rhythm.
Peripheral Vascular Disease
Reduced circulation may affect skin sensitivity and healing.
Diabetes with Neuropathy (loss of sensation)
Risk of burns or skin irritation if the patient cannot feel excessive stimulation.
Cognitive Impairment (e.g., dementia, inability to operate the device properly)
May lead to incorrect usage or skin damage.
Metal Implants (near the stimulation site)
Could conduct electricity unpredictably.
If you have any underlying health conditions, it’s best to check with a healthcare provider before using a TENS machine.
