Numeric Pain Scale for Rehab
Numeric pain scale rehab uses 0–10 ratings during and after exercise to gate load—keeping work tolerable and morning pain stable.
A numeric pain scale for rehab rates symptoms 0–10 during and after exercises—0 is none, 10 is worst imaginable. Clinicians often cap work around 3–4 during reps and require morning pain not higher than baseline.
The number is a decision tool, not a morale score. Log before and after sessions for trend, not one heroic set.
Common questions
-
Is some pain during rehab normal?
Mild, stable pain that settles within twenty-four hours can be acceptable on a clinician-approved plan; rising or sharp pain is a stop signal, not something to push through.
