I would have thought a 10 would be “Kill me, right now. I am in so much pain I would much rather be dead than spend another minute like this” and anything below that depends on where the pain is, like if it’s your arm I would consider a 9 to be “This hurts so much you can get out the hacksaw and chop off my arm because at least then the pain will be gone”.
So… Not so much “How much does it hurt?” as “How far are you willing to go to stop it hurting?”
I used to know someone who would regularly rate headaches/migraines as a 10 when I asked them how bad it was, and like, no, it’s clearly not a 10, because you’re standing up talking to me. A 10 is beyond curled up in the fetal position unable to open your eyes through the pain. I get that you are used to these headaches, and can overcome a lot of the pain - but that’s still not a fucking 10, that’s like a 6 or 7 at most. Lying about it means I can’t accurately judge how to help you.
I’ve had tension headaches where I’ve spent hours on the shower floor in the middle of the night and I’d still rate them at most an 8 for the very worst ones where I couldn’t get up
I was worried I had testicular torsion but didn’t think my pain was high enough for it, but there’s only so many times you can read stuff like “getting it addressed within X hours has Y% chance of saving the testicle” before you came lol. (It was actually a UTI or something.) The doc told me that it’s a 10, “well, more like an 11.”

Dang, I wish it was that easy to come for me.
lol, I think I meant to say “cave” but the idea of cumming from hearing about the possibility of having testicular torsion is too funny to fix.
