I have chronic lower/mid back problems due to degenerative disc disease.
I also sleep on my stomach, which is bad for people with back problems, but I can't help it. I am looking for a king mattress that will be good for my back pain and will either... 1) allow me to sleep on my stomach and help with my back 2) make me comfortable enough to fall asleep on my back while giving me some support THere are a lot of choices out there... 1) Traditional mattress (firm, soft, or pillow top) 2) Swedish Tempur-pedic mattress 3) Craftmatic adjustable bed 4) Air matress (Select Comfort or Comforaire) 5) Latex mattresses Does anyone have any personal experience similar to mine that found a good solution. Cost really isn't an issue, so if I need to spend big $$$$ on a mattress, I will. Thanks! |

B << uses a body pillow. Wraps legs around it (between the knees) and lays on side like a good boy. ZERO back issues and leans over cars for a living.
Number one reason for back pain: stress. Guy's clinch their ASS when are stressed. Think about it the next time your back hurts.. I catch myself "clinching".. stopped and pains went away. B |
