Your patients forget.
Pain Journal remembers.
A free pain diary you can recommend in one sentence. Your patients log in 10 seconds between visits and arrive with a clear PDF history instead of "it's been bad lately."
You already know this gap
Between appointments, patients lose the detail. By the time they sit down with you, weeks of pain have collapsed into a vague impression shaped by how they feel that morning. Recall bias is a known effect in symptom histories, and reconstructing a history live burns consult minutes you do not have.
Pain Journal closes that gap on the patient's side, for free, without adding anything to your workflow.
What the patient brings you
A clean, structured PDF the patient generates themselves and can email or hand to you. It summarises:
- Pain locations on a 39-zone body map (front and back). The per-zone frequency table is Premium.
- Severity per entry, day by day, with typical and worst levels for the period. The timeline chart is Premium.
- Pain type and triggers the patient logged (activity, sleep, weather, stress and their own custom notes).
- Sleep impact alongside pain, for the patients where that link matters.
- Medication context: what they take. The descriptive with-versus-without table for regular medications is Premium.
- A chosen date range (Premium), so the report can match the period since their last visit. The free report covers the last 7 days.
Why it is safe to recommend
Free for patients
The doctor report is free. No credit system, no per-report charge, no per-export fee. The free report covers the last 7 days, which suits a routine appointment; Premium adds longer ranges and the analysis sections. Patients are never up-sold to get a usable history.
Nothing reaches your practice from us
No account, no sign-up. Entries stay on the patient's own device; optional backup goes only to the patient's own iCloud or Google Drive. Recommending the app creates no relationship between your practice and Vizaxis and sends no patient data to us. A report a patient hands or emails you is handled under your usual record-keeping rules.
Not a medical device
Pain Journal does not diagnose, score, or give medical advice. It is structured patient-reported history, nothing more. The clinical interpretation stays entirely with you.
No ads, no data selling
No advertising, no third-party trackers for ads, no selling of patient data. Privacy-first is the product, not a marketing line.

Pain Journal is a patient-facing journaling app, not a medical device, and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or manage any condition. It records patient-reported information only.
