When doctors ask you to rate your pain from 1 to 10, how accurate can your answer be if you’ve never experienced something extreme, like childbirth? Does that really help the doctor understand your pain?

Doctors usually make a number of assumptions given a common set of patient characteristics. In that way, they're able to translate our relative rating to their more absolute scale.
