- A TENS / EMS Unit can be a great tool for helping to reduce and relieve knee pain. It can also help retrain weak or injured muscles. Here are a few wireless & wired pad placements to help relieve knee pain. Buy an iReliev TENS/EMS Unit at ireliev.com/product/therapeut... (affiliate link)
Some common knee and leg injuries that may benefit from a TENS/EMS unit include things like bursitis, tendonitis, strains, sprains, knee replacements (TKA), and arthritis pain.
EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) is used to help retrain muscles. It helps activate the muscles to accelerate healing and regain strength in that muscle. EMS is uncomfortable, and you SHOULD get a contraction with this.
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is used to help reduce pain and increase circulation. The vibration/massage helps relax the muscles and increase circulation to help with healing. You should NOT get a sustained muscle contraction when using TENS.
Wireless TENS/EMS units are a great option for knee pain because there’s no worry about getting the cords tangled. The iReliev TENS/EMS wireless unit is not only wireless, but it also has 14 different modes to help you get the best option for pain relief. Their large pads also make it easy to place over a larger area to get the best coverage.

I just had ankle surgery July 27th 2020 and I'm still not working as of yet because my knee is so stiff I can't bend it in its out what would you suggest me to do I can only wish I could get a respond back
I have a TENS unit, not wireless, but I need to start using it on my knee that has OA. I've used it on my back and it works for me, feels better. 😊
I just ordered the iReliev 8080 wired. I have lower back pain and knee pain. Hopefully this will work.
What do you recommend for ACL post-op 3 weeks? how can I get these fluids and swelling oit
Hi Dr. Jo! I already have a TENS unit (TENS 7000). Can I also use it for leg muscle recovery?
How much frequency take in tens for lower back pain??
would this work on the back of the knee?
After acl Surgury I can use it for increase quad muscle madam
👏 thanks
You're welcome.
Can you recommend any affordable shoes for running? I love the runners high but my knees always feel like pearl harbour after
I really like Brooks. They also have a "shoe finder" on their website that helps you figure out what style of shoe would work best for you after answering a few questions. It's not as accurate as getting assessed by someone, but it's a great guide: www.brooksrunning.com/en_us/ShoeFinder
@@AskDoctorJo Thank you, Ma'am
You're welcome.
Interesting gadget.
Maam my left knee hurts when I squat what should I do. I have osgood-schlatter disease in my left leg I am a sportsman and when I run slowly my right knee pains what should I do ?
I have a video for OSD. You can find it at: ua-cam.com/users/askdoctorjo
@@AskDoctorJo what about my right knee which hurts while I run?
Unfortunately, I don't know since I can't evaluate you.
👍👍👍👍👍
Sorry Dr Jo,, subtitles in the video blocks the view and whatever you want to show is not visible.
Sometimes they get turned on randomly. You can easily turn them off by hitting the "CC" button at the bottom of the video. You can also make them transparent if you'd like to keep them on. I show how to do all that and more in this video: ua-cam.com/video/VatNBZh66Po/v-deo.html
So this is for a injury?
It can be.
