Summary
This study looked at how two electrical stimulation methods—TENS (using skin pads) and PENS (using tiny needles)—affect the nerves in the arm of healthy people. 120 volunteers aged 18 to 60 received one 20-minute session. Researchers measured pain thresholds and muscle strength to see which method works better. The goal is to help doctors choose the best technique for pain relief.
