Recurring Lower Back Pain: How to Relieve Lower Back Pain While Sleeping
You can be encouraged to know that there are a few ways to DEAL with your hurtful
lower back pain..
As you will see in this authoritative medical article, you can put a PILLOW between your knees as you rest. It is important to try and keep your top leg from falling over your bottom leg. This involves the “side sleeper position“.
You can also have a solution to your recurring lower back pain, if you sleep on your back. I will include an article at the end of this post, under “Resources“, which speaks to the Pros and Cons of being a side sleeper or a back sleeper. Suffice to say, if you rest on your back, you can find relief:
What you do is place a pillow under your knees. Additionally, you can rest a small, rolled-up towel under the curve of your back (See the ‘Resources’ at the End of the Post )*

You want to sleep so that your back is in a neutral position. You also should consider a new bed, or mattress, every 5 years. If your budget simply will not allow you to buy a bed, then you can place plywood supports between the mattress and its base. Or you could have someone move your mattress onto the floor.
Be sure and check out the WebMD article at the conclusion of this post; it tells you how to support your low back in bed. And it even includes a Towel trick!
