Question : I have an itchy rash where I used tens pads on my back.
Could the pads cause this? I also use Tylenol and understand too much Tylenol can cause a rash.
Do you think tens pads could cause this rash....a few itchy red spots

Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

Tylenol is a safe drug and doesn't cause allergies in most cases.

The pads could cause the rah especially in a case of contact dermatitis.

If possible , kindly upload an image of the area involving the red itchy spots to comment further.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
