What is the proper lying position?
· Find the mattress that is right for you. While a firm mattress is
generally recommended, some people find that softer mattresses
reduce their back pain. Your comfort is important.
· Sleep with a pillow. Special pillows are available to help with postural
problems resulting from a poor sleeping position.
· Avoid sleeping on your stomach.
· Sleeping on your side or back is more often helpful for back pain. If
you sleep on your side, place a pillow between your legs. If you
sleep on your back, keep a pillow under your knees.
