Back Problems

Back problems or back pain make sleeping difficult, resulting in broken and uncomfortable sleep.

If you haven’t already seen a doctor about your back problems, do so! Also, consider the following tips:

• Your sleeping position could be making your back problems worse. The best sleeping position for back pain sufferers is usually on your side with your knees bent.
• Sleeping on the wrong mattress or an old, saggy mattress can cause or worsen back problems by creating poor sleeping posture, so make sure that your mattress is comfortable and suitable for you.
• Keep your back correctly aligned with the correct pillow(s). The general rule is that the wider your back is, the deeper your pillow needs to be in order to keep your spine aligned.
