The ageing of the population, combined with its growing size, could be the cause of a sharp rise in the number of cases of low back pain in the world in the coming years. A new international study estimates that 843 million people could be living with back pain in 2050, compared with 619 million in 2020.
Study estimates there will be over 800 million cases of low back pain in 2050, a 36 percent increase from 2020. With an aging population, researchers say we must put the brakes on low back pain cases before the burden becomes too great for our healthcare system.
