Abstract

The term ‘Pain’ refers to the sensory response of the body when the reflex tolerance level of the person exceeds the threshold value. Though most of the pain senses are tolerable, it still disturbs the normal anatomical actions of the body, classifying it as tolerable and intolerable pain. Various techniques have evolved in the past few years to quantify pain; however, they are successful only in subjective determination thus leading to inaccuracy in prediction. The proposed paper discusses a few objective methods to quantify non – clinical pain. FLIR spectroscopic images can recognize inflammation and high-temperature points in a given region. Upon using various mechanical algorithms, accurate pain values can be determined. Similarly, by solving the pain-causing equation, we can derive the pain peak values. These methods can replace the conventional scales and help in subsidiary pain assessment.
