Journal of Health and Rehabilitation Research (JHRR).
Article: "Prevalence and Risk Factors of Plantar Fasciitis among Working Adults" (2023).
Key Finding: This study identified that approximately 83% of patients seeking treatment for plantar fasciitis are active working adults between the ages of 25 and 65. It explicitly labels chronic heel pain as a significant "occupational hazard" for the modern workforce.
🚨 2. The Workplace Injury Burden (2024)
Safe Work Australia: Key Work Health and Safety Statistics Australia.
Report: Annual Statistical Report (Published 2024).
Key Finding: Lower limb injuries, which encompass the feet, ankles, and heels, consistently represent approximately 20% of all serious workplace claims in Australia.
🚨 3. The Peak Age for Management (2022)
BMJ Open / Australian Family Physician (Research Analysis).
Article: "Management of Plantar Fasciitis in Australian General Practice".
Key Finding: Epidemiological data reveals that the rate of clinical management for heel pain is highest among the 45–64 age bracket. This is a critical insight because it targets workers at the peak of their professional careers and responsibilities.
🚨 4. Risk in High-Standing Professions (2023)
Occupational Medicine / Journal of Occupational Health.
Article: "Occupational Standing and the Risk of Chronic Plantar Heel Pain" (2023).
Key Finding: Large-scale cross-sectional studies confirm a significantly higher prevalence of chronic heel pain in manual, retail, and intermediate service occupations compared to sedentary roles. The research highlights that prolonged weight-bearing is the primary driver of reduced work capacity.
