What causes whole-body pain after an electric shock?

Generalized body pain after an electric shock may be a symptom of nerve damage caused by electrical stimulation. For body pain following an electric shock, anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications can be taken. Consuming certain foods and medications that promote blood circulation may also help accelerate recovery. Muscle pain may occur after electrocution, sometimes accompanied by fractures or dislocations, which require immediate medical evaluation. If significant discomfort is experienced after an electric shock, prompt symptomatic treatment is necessary.
