B. It affects just less than half of all adults.

Explanation:

Younger people (especially between the ages of 30 and 60) are the most likely to experience back pain especially as a result of lumbar muscle strain.

Usually, a low back pain lasts only a few days or a few weeks, becoming in fact one of the most common.

Its causes are very varied, among them we can highlight:

Muscle spasms Tears or strain of muscles or ligaments that support the back. Herniated disc Broken disk. Sciatica. Osteoporosis (which causes compression fractures of the spine).
