Yes, this can happen in the beginning — don’t worry.
When you start physio, the muscles and nerves that are already irritated begin to respond, so the areas where electrodes are placed can feel a bit sore or tender. This is quite common, especially in neck pain that goes to the arm.
It should be mild and settle in a few hours. If it’s increasing or lasting long, your therapist can adjust the intensity.
With regular sessions and exercises, it usually improves. Most people start feeling better within 1–2 weeks, but full recovery may take a few weeks depending on the condition.
Just be consistent and take care of your posture
