Revised Pain Scales

I created revised Wong Baker pain scales with the results from the "Art of Suffering" survey. The original pain scale is incredibly limiting and short sighted. I've tried to expand the pain scale to consider a wider range of possibilities in hopes of revealing the many different ways pain is interpreted and experienced. What do you think? Which one is your favorite? (I made six versions.)

The original Wong Baker pain scale:



The Attitude Pain Scale:


The Comparative Pain Scale:


The Distraction Pain Scale:


The Expression Control Pain Scale:


The Posture Pain Scale:


The Stimuli Pain Scale:
