Investigating the Prevalence and Level of Pain Experienced by Australian Farmers

The prevalence of chronic pain, level of bodily pain, and pain interference with normal work in Australian farmers is higher than the general working population. However, information is lacking on the factors that influence pain for this unique group. Further exploration is needed into why factors that are commonly associated with pain are not associated with pain in the farming population.

Abstract

The prevalence of chronic pain, level of bodily pain, and pain interference with normal work in Australian farmers is higher than the general working population. However, information is lacking on the factors that influence pain for this unique group. Further exploration is needed into why factors that are commonly associated with pain are not associated with pain in the farming population.
