We listen to your child, understand their pain, and develop a plan that meets their needs.

We assess and treat acute and chronic pain in children through an individualized plan that considers the child's age, medical condition, and psychological and social needs, in partnership with the child and their family.

How Much Does It Hurt? Pain Scales Suitable for Your Child's Age

Pain is a personal experience, and the child is the best person to describe it. We help children express their pain in a way that suits their age and communication abilities, and use the same scale at each visit to monitor improvement accurately.

The Faces Pain Scale – For Children Aged Approximately 4 Years and Older

We show the child a series of faces and ask them to point to the face that best represents how much pain they are feeling now—from the first face (no pain) to the last face (very severe pain). We ask the child about the intensity of the pain, not whether they feel sad or happy.

Faces pain scale with six faces numbered 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10, from no pain to very severe pain

No pain → Increasing pain intensity → Very severe pain

The Numeric Rating Scale – For Children Aged Approximately 8 Years and Older

The child chooses a number from 0 to 10, where 0 means no pain and 10 means the worst pain imaginable.

Numeric pain rating scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable)

0 – No pain | 1–3 – Mild pain | 4–6 – Moderate pain | 7–10 – Severe pain

For Infants, Young Children, and Children Who Cannot Express Themselves Verbally

We observe the child's behavior, including facial expressions, crying, body movements, and ability to be soothed, using validated behavioral tools such as the FLACC scale. We also rely on parents' knowledge of their child, as you are best placed to recognize the specific signs they use to express pain.

Conditions We Help Treat

Recurrent headaches and migraines.
Abdominal pain
Recurrent and chronic abdominal pain, including functional abdominal pain, following appropriate medical assessment.
Muscle, joint and back pain
Muscle, joint, limb, and back pain.
Menstrual pain

Pain with chronic diseases
Pain associated with chronic diseases and tumors, such as sickle cell disease and pediatric rheumatic joint diseases.
Children with communication difficulties
Assessment and treatment of pain in children with neurological disabilities or communication difficulties, including children who cannot express pain verbally.

How Do We Assess Pain?

We begin by listening to the child and family, taking a medical history, and performing a clinical examination. We use assessment tools suited to the child's age and communication abilities, such as faces and numeric rating scales, as well as behavioral observation tools for children who cannot express themselves verbally.

The assessment considers how pain affects sleep, movement, school attendance, mood, and family and social relationships. We also identify factors that may worsen the pain or help relieve it.

A Comprehensive Treatment Plan

Medication when needed
Doses are calculated according to the child's age and weight. We monitor effectiveness and side effects and adjust the plan according to the response.
Pain-coping skills
Teaching children skills such as calm breathing, relaxation, guided imagery, and age-appropriate distraction.
Pain, stress and fear
Understanding the relationship between pain, stress, and fear, and supporting the child and family in managing these factors.
Sleep and daily activities
Guidance to improve sleep, regulate activity, and gradually return to daily activities.
Coordinated care
Coordination with physical therapy, rehabilitation, and specialized psychological support when needed.
Regular follow-up
Regular follow-up to monitor pain and improvements in the child's daily quality of life.
School support
Communication with the school when needed to develop a plan that helps the child attend school regularly.
Interventional Pain Management
When needed: assessment for specialized procedures, such as injecting a local anesthetic into the targeted area to relieve pain. These procedures are referred to the Anesthesia Department and are used in very rare cases.

Our Goal

To relieve pain and improve the child's quality of life, support regular school attendance and reduce absences, and help maintain physical activity and connections with friends and family, according to the child's medical condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Before Your Visit
Do I need a referral from another doctor?

You can book an appointment directly through the unified number. Some insurance companies may require a referral, so we recommend checking your coverage when booking.

If the tests are normal, does that mean my child's pain is psychological or not real?

No. Your child's pain is real, even when test results are normal. In some cases of chronic pain, the nervous system may become more sensitive to pain. Psychological and social stressors, such as anxiety or difficulties at school or in relationships, may increase the intensity of pain and its impact on a child's life. This does not mean the child is imagining the pain. We consider these factors as part of a comprehensive assessment and listen to the child and family to help the child develop skills to relieve pain, cope with it more effectively, and return to daily activities.

Are pain medicines safe for my child? Can they become dependent on them?

We carefully select medication and dosage according to the child's age, weight, and condition, and regularly monitor effectiveness and side effects. Strong painkillers are used only when truly necessary and under close supervision. In many cases of chronic pain, treatment does not rely on medication alone.

Should my child attend the appointment?

Yes. We make sure to listen to the child as well as the parents. One parent or the primary caregiver who knows the details of the child's condition is encouraged to attend.

What should I bring to the first visit?

Bring any previous medical reports, imaging scans, or test results; a list of the medicines your child takes and what has previously been tried to relieve the pain; and a daily pain diary, if available.
