Zusammenfassung:A phototherapy device with pain location input phototherapy device for relieving nociceptive pain of a body part of a user by illumination of at least a part of the body part. A controllable light source system (LS1, LS2, LS3) comprises at least one light source arranged on a patch structure (PS) so as to allow phototherapeutic illumination of a body part. A user interface (U_I), e.g. a touch panel (TP), is arranged to receive an input from the user regarding a spatial position on the body where the user feels pain. A control system (CS) is arranged to control the controllable light source system (LS1, LS2, LS3) in accordance with said input from the user, e.g. to spatially intensify illumination at the position where the user indicates a sensation of pain. E.g. the device may be wirelessly controlled from the a smart phone, where a map of the body can be displayed, and where the user indicates on this map where he/she feels pain.
