I don't think it will sort out your problems, but I'm sure it will help you
manage the pain.
I have only been using a TENS machine since April, although I have had a
RSI for nearing 12 years. I just wish I had used one sooner.
Don't be frightened to use it, but don't let it lul you into a false sense
of security - even if there is no pain, don't push it ... you still have an
injury that needs tender care and attention.
