Inflammation Score Calculator

What is the Inflammation Score Calculator?

The Inflammation Score Calculator is a simple yet effective tool designed to assess inflammation-related symptoms based on user inputs. By identifying the number of affirmative responses, it helps quantify potential inflammation levels in the body.

Why Use the Inflammation Score Calculator?

This calculator provides valuable insights into inflammation, which is often linked to various health issues, such as chronic diseases, joint pain, hormonal imbalances, and digestive problems. Tracking these symptoms can guide early intervention and promote better health management.

How is the Inflammation Score Calculated?

The score is calculated by assigning **1 point for each "yes" response** and **0 points for each "no" response** across the following questions:

• Are you frequently tired and fatigued?
• Do you experience energy dips throughout the day?
• Are you unable to lose weight?
• Do you have ongoing or occasional joint pain?
• Do you often experience muscle stiffness?
• Do you have frequent headaches, mouth sores, or chest pain?
• Do you experience swelling, digestive issues, or regular fevers?
• Do you often have a rash or struggle with hormonal imbalances?

The total score is interpreted as:

• Low Inflammation: 0–4 points
• Moderate Inflammation: 5–9 points
• High Inflammation: 10+ points

Example Calculation

  Joint Pain: Yes (+1 pts)
  Muscle Stiffness: No (+0 pts)
  Frequent Headaches: Yes (+1 pts)
  Mouth Sores: No (+0 pts)
