Commonly asked questions

Common Pain Level Charts include the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Verbal Rating Scale (VRS), and Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale. Each scale uses a different method to quantify pain, such as numbers, visual analogs, or descriptive words.

During a doctor visit, individuals are commonly asked to rate their pain intensity on the provided scale, with 0 typically representing no pain and the highest number or descriptor representing the worst imaginable pain.

The frequency of pain assessments depends on the individual's condition and treatment plan. Pain should be assessed regularly, especially when changes in pain intensity are expected or when adjusting pain management strategies.
