After an amputation, many of those affected feel the part of the body that is no longer there. They experience a tingling, twitching or a cold and warm sensation. However, real pain can also be felt, which manifests itself in cramps, a burning or stinging sensation. The TENS pain therapy can help you to relieve the pain with the help of a TENS device.
