Mild Pain = 1-3 (nagging or annoying but doesn't interfere with daily activities).By giving the numbers some definition, we hope to help you assign a number. For example, "on my best day my pain is a 0, but at its worst it is a 6."The goal of asking a number is to identify how pain is affecting your routine daily activities. You might provide an explanation for your pain score. Therefore, your pain score is unique to you. Everyone experiences pain differently and each of us has a difference tolerance for pain. The purpose of the pain scale is to provide a standardized means of measuring pain intensity and severity. We have developed some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) to help makes this a meaningful part of your next visit.
There are several types of pain questionnaires that clinics use which are slightly different in content, the number of questions and the actual scale used. If you say "yes" the next question is likely "please rate your pain on a 0 to 10 scale." This can be confusing to you as a patient and you might be wondering, "how do I put a number on my pain?" "What is my provider really asking?"
Nearly every medical appointment you go to these days will ask if you are experience pain.
