    A medical student is asking a patient for permission to ask questions about their condition as part of a history taking. The student will ask the patient to identify the location of their pain, how long it has been present, how it would describe the nature and severity of the pain on a scale of 1-10, and whether the pain radiates to other areas or is associated with other symptoms like nausea, vomiting, sweating, difficulty breathing or coughing. The student will also ask about any factors that make the pain better or worse over time.
