Naive q about TENS machine

Can I actually put the pads on my belly when I'm in pain??!

38+1 and currently experiencing the joys of "lightening crotch".

Didn't realise I could jump so high, so quickly.

Don't know the answer but not sure Tens machine will help for that? It's for muscle pain really.

You shouldn't use it on your abdomen according to the instructions on the mama TENS.

Its your back that the pads should be placed on. Don't place them on your belly
