Spanish term or phrase: durante los últimos días
Si el dolor nocturno experimentado antes de alguno de los días del examen no concuerda con el dolor experimentado durante los últimos días, se debe determinar el grado de dolor promedio de los últimos días o de la última semana como se indicó anteriormente y se debe registrar ese valor.

in/during the previous few days
Explanation:
e.g. If the examination is on Friday, and the pain on the night of Thursday/Friday night was different to that during the previous days (or nights, perhaps) - say, from Monday to Thursday - then the patient should indicate the average for those previous days/nights, or for the previous week.

So, it's 'previous', not 'last' or 'past'.

recently


Explanation:
Well, not literal, but this is what I thought when I saw it...

If the doctor said "have you had pain recently"...you'd probably answer

Not recently...meaning in the last day or three..

were that the case..
