Injuries can be caused by specific events, such as accidents or falls, or from repetitive actions. Injuries may impact bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and more. Common examples include wrist fractures, ankle sprains, shoulder dislocations, and hamstring muscle strain. Injuries can happen at work or play, indoors or outdoors, driving a car, lifting items, or even spending too much time on your feet. These injuries are often accompanied by pain and discomfort. Rest and time can help the healing process of minor injuries. Treating the pain with drugs is not always a good option. Opioids, NSAIDs, and even acetaminophen may cause adverse health reactions. The Oscillice® technology of Buzzy® and VibraCool® can block pain and help speed recovery and the healing process.
Bumps and Bruises

For Neck Injuries
A sudden neck movement, like from a car accident or fall, is often the cause of a neck strain or sprain.

These injuries may include whiplash, pinched nerves, disc herniations, and swollen joints. Symptoms of these injuries include pain with neck movement, neck stiffness (sometimes described as a “crick in the neck”), muscle spasms and pain in the upper shoulder, or reduced neck flexibility.
