I started with a TENS unit --- which has electrode patches that are on the exterrior. That helped, so I agreed a few years later to try a stimulator that is a wire that runs up the spinal cord and into the nerve bundle. There is a rechargable battery in my lower back that runs the system. It's completely internal and helps with nerve pain --- so it only helps with part of the problem as there is pain caused by muscle, tendon, and bone. However it helps a lot.
