About Pain Map Tool

It can be hard to remember every detail of pain during a short appointment. This tool gives you a place to record where it hurts, what it feels like and when you notice it, then take those notes with you.

What goes into a report

Choose an area on the front or back of the body. Add your own pain rating, description, timing and notes about what makes it better or worse. You can record more than one area. The PDF puts those entries together and includes the time it was generated.

The pain score is your rating. The map does not identify the cause, calculate a diagnosis or decide how urgently you need care.

Using another language

The interface is available in 12 languages. For non-English entries, free-text notes may be sent to DeepL to produce an English version for your provider. A translated word can change the meaning of a symptom. Check it against the original and use a qualified interpreter when needed.

Save before you leave

The website does not keep a patient history. Your entries stay in memory in the current page and can disappear if you refresh or close it. Download the PDF if you want to keep it. To compare different days, keep the dated reports yourself.

Clinical review

The tool records your observations; it has not been independently clinically validated. The educational pages do not currently have a named clinician reviewer. Bring questions about your symptoms to a qualified healthcare professional.
