EMG/NCS is a test used to evaluate the condition of the muscles and the nerves that innervate them, aiding in the identification of ailments such as dystrophy or nerve-related disorders.

For an EMG, you can eat and drink as normal, but you should avoid caffeine and smoking for 3 hours before the test. Do not apply any lotion or ointment to your skin on the day of your test. For an EEG, follow any specific instructions given by your doctor, which may include sleep preparation or medication adjustments.

Both EEG and EMG are considered safe procedures with minimal risks. Some people might experience mild discomfort from the electrode application in an EEG and NCS. Additionally, there’s a small risk of skin irritation or minor bruising and pain from EMG needles.
