hello, i've been diagnosed with a t8-t9 disc bulge, only symptoms are chronic muscle spasms, no disc pain, no neurological pain. i have had this for 5ish months. in the last few days ive tried using a TENS machine, HUGE difference, it really helps. what are the best settings for muscle spasms? I've been using 250 pulse width, 100 pulse rate and alternating between continuous, burst and modular, i dont know which mode is best for spasms? any help would be great please.
