    This document describes two common scales used to measure pain - the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). The VAS uses a 10cm line to indicate the intensity of pain, with the left end labeled "no pain" and the right end labeled "pain as bad as it could be." The NPRS uses numbers from 0 to 10 to rate pain, with 0 being no pain and 10 being the worst possible pain.
