Yes! Some MyMigraineTeam members have found success using TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) units to help manage their migraine eye and face pain. A TENS unit works by placing it on the surface of the skin, where it sends electrical signals that can help disrupt pain signals from the nerves. One MyMigraineTeam member reported significant improvement after using a TENS unit for a couple of weeks, noting they experienced fewer migraines (averaging one per week) and reduced facial pain. Before trying a TENS unit, it's recommended to discuss this treatment option with your healthcare provider to ensure it's appropriate for your specific situation.
