Ability to add Symptom tags describing type of pain

I would love to be able to add tags to describe my pain, eg. throbbing, stabbing, pins and needles, aching, etc. If possible would be great to have these for each symptom, but even just having it available as a separate section could be invaluable, as it would allow us to be able to see patterns in types of pain, and make it easier to explain our pain to medical professionals (I have different types of pain so it’s easy to forget one, or not remember which type is most prevalent, as it’s a lot harder to describe once that type of pain has lessened or gone).

    I completely agree, being about to tag whether the pain is achey or stabbing etc would be very helpful

    I have migraines and currently I have 4 different kinds of headache listed to try to do this. Tags would be so much better. I also get brain fog which does a variety of things that, like headaches, I have listed separately to track but it would be much better to track with tags.

    “More specific pain points.

    Where the pain is like joint pain in knee or muscle pain in arm.”
