Two-thirds of young adults have ‘work-from-home back’: study

If you’ve been having more back problems since working from home, you’re not alone.

A new poll conducted by the British self-care campaign Mind Your Back has discovered a new phenomenon among young adults: WFH back.

The survey of 1,000 adults across the United Kingdom aimed to see how the COVID-19 pandemic changed daily habits and found a rising number — two-thirds — of Brits aged 18 to 29 experienced back pain they didn’t have prior to the pandemic.
