N2  - Background: TENS current had been used in a wide range for pain management with cases of myofascial pain syndrome. Purpose of this study was to investigate if fixed versus different TENS amplitudes are more effective for pain management with cases of myofascial pain at upper trapezius muscle. Methods: Thirty patients from out clinic at faculty of physical therapy, Cairo university have been participated in the study. They were divided into two groups fifteen patients at each group according to type of TENS amplitudes that had been received. First group "Group (A)'' had the patients who received fixed TENS amplitude, second group "Group (B)" had the patients that received different TENS amplitudes and both groups receive the same type of exercise. Results: there is a great effect of TENS in management of myofascial pain syndrome for upper fibers of trapezius while there is no significant difference between fixed versus different pulse amplitude of TENS in management of pain at upper fibers of trapezius. Conclusion:  TENS is effective in management of myofascial pain syndrome at upper fibers of trapezius with no difference between fixed and adjusted pulse amplitude
