How can this possibly be true? Completely incapacitated, ie bedridden and immobile? Surely the country would be in near collapse if 30+ million of its inhabitants were randomly bedridden at any one time just by that one medical issue.
Thank goodness for aspirin, ibufprofen and acetaminopen!
It is an overstatement. But if you merely ask around, especially of men, you will likely find a majority of them have had serious back pain and have some trepidation that it might, at any time, for little or no reason, return.
