Pain Intensity Scale

The Pain Intensity Scale is a tool used to measure how much pain a person is experiencing. It typically ranges from 0 to 10, where 0 means no pain at all and 10 represents the worst pain imaginable. Patients use this scale to communicate their pain levels to healthcare providers, helping professionals understand the severity of their condition and tailor treatments accordingly. By standardizing pain assessments, it allows for better management and tracking of pain over time.
