What is the most common muscle disorder?

Sprains: Sprains/strains is the most common muscle problem. If you are looking specifically for a disease, then muscular dystrophy would be my top choice. Depending on how you want to classify fibromyalgia, it could rank as the top disease.

Low back pain: In my practice, low back pain and neck pain of musculoskeletal origin is the most common. Shoulder rotator cuff issues are also very common.
