Managing Pain After Surgery
What is pain?
Pain is an unpleasant feeling.
Pain is a unique feeling that only you can
understand. Some people think that pain after
surgery is something that you must put up with.
This is not true.
It is important that your pain is managed well.
We want to work with you to avoid and help
your pain. When you are in the hospital, we will
ask you to tell us about your pain using a scale
from 0-10.
If 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain ever, what
number would you give your pain?
No pain Worst pain ever
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
We want to know about your pain at rest and
also when you are moving around.

Why is pain control so important?
Less pain means less stress on your body. Your
body heals better with less stress.
With less pain, you start walking, doing your
breathing exercises, and getting your strength
back quicker. This lowers your chance of
problems such as infection and blood clots.
What can I do to help keep my pain under
control?
Before surgery
Ask your doctor or nurse what to expect. Being
ready helps put you in control.
Some questions to ask are:
› Will there be pain after surgery?
› How long is the pain likely to last?
› How will my pain be controlled?
After surgery
When should I ask for pain medicine?
Take your pain medicine when the pain starts.
If you know that your pain will get worse when
you start walking or during deep breathing
and/or coughing exercises, take your pain
medicine first.
