Yay the stomach trick :D lol or get a new bed lol but no metal inside of it i have a Sultan bed its the bed to squishy and soft :P

Answer #8

If that happens much, you’d better go to a doctor to have your cholesterol checked since one of the symptoms is having back and neck pain in the morning.

Answer #9

the healthiest way to sleep is on your back stiff as a board, but obesity complicates this due to sleep apnea and collapsation of the airway, which can cause death. you would have to train your body to sleep like that though.

Answer #10

My dad has back problems and his phisiotherapist told him to sleep on his back or on his sides with a pillow between his knees. Never sleep on your tummy!

Answer #11

Sleeping on your back is a better posture like way to sleep, other than on your side ;3

Answer #12

you may have to get a new box spring mattress or a mattress or both. my husband and i just replaced ours and our backs are finally feeling better, but we’re higher off the floor which kinda scares me
