Action note: In: Summary: ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Delayed Onset muscle soreness commonly referred to as DOMS is a self-limiting musculosketal injury. DOMS usually developed after 24-48 hours following a novel physical exercise and last for 2-3 days. DOMS is commonly addressed by applying cold packs and stretching the affected muscle. However there are several studies that proposed other affected muscle. However the are several studies that proposed other effective treatment for DOMS such as static stretching accompanied TENS that had found to be effective static stretching alone. In this study, the researchers want to isolate TENS in trating DOMS compared to other studies in which TENS is always use with other modality. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to examine the optimal stimulation of conventional transcutaneous nerve stimulation of conventional transcutaneous nerve stimulation in relieving induced muscle soreness in the non-dominant elbow flexor. DESIGN: The used an experimental pre- and post-test research design to evaluate the optimal duration of TENS application in trating induced DOMS. It aims to compare the pain scale pre-test and post-test difference between the 3 treatment groups. METHODS: Eighteen (18) subjects were recruited and were asked to perform biceps curls on the non-dominant elbow flexor. The subjects were asked to return to the clinic after 24 to 48 hours then the subjects received either: (a) 20 minutes (grp20); (b) 30 minutes (grp30); (c) 40 minutes (grp40) of TENS. A visual analogue scale was utilized to record the pain relief post-stimulation. RESULTS: Among the three treatment groups, group40 (1.16) shows a lower post-test VAS scores compared to group20 (1) and group30 (1.3). However, statiscally, group 20 (p=0.01) can produce the same analgesic effects as the group 40 (p = 0.01) as compared to group 30 (p = 0.04). CONCLUSION: Conventional TENS is an effective modality in trating DOMS. It has as immediate pain-reilief and could be used in clinics to minimize and lessen DOMS after exercise. The Optimal analgesic effect of TENS in treating DOMS can be achieved at 40 minutes duration. Other editions:
