Health professionals use the Pain scales for assessment during hospital visit, out-patient/in-patient procedures etc. Patients typically self-reports their pain using a specially designed scale from 0 to 10 to indicate pain level.

Do you think this is the best way of assessing pain severity? Why, or why not?
