Is there anything I can use in bed that would ease my back pain?

Question

I have a back condition...fell through my attic floor 15 years ago...and it's so uncomfortable trying to sleep. I put pillows under my knees, under my torso (when on my side). I wake up in the morning in a sea on pillows and blankets. Anyone have any better solutions?

Answer 1

3 things.

1. A water bed

2. A massage chair

3. Inversion table.

I have found a good masseuse to be more effective than a Chiropractor.  Also,I've found Neuro-Muscular therapists to be more effective than Chiropractors.  

Hmmmm...To be honest I've found NOT going to Chiropractors to be more effective than going to Chiropractors.

Seriously kid, if a mechanic took 15 years to fix your car, you'd know they were a quack.  Do not reward incompetence when it comes to your body.

Answer 2

good luck that pain can be awful. i feel for you. try puttung a quilt on the floor by a couch or chair put you legs up there. not a wonderful place to sleep but could relieve pain

Answer 3

My husband has had back pain for years from an accident. He has protruded discs at the L4 and 5 levels. He finds relief by putting a strong pillow between his legs on his side. He also uses a small memory foam tubular pillow on his neck. Too many pillows around his head agitates the problem. He also relented and had an epidural.  

Answer 4

Try a sponge filled pillow. You can make your own by just stuffing a pillow case with sponges. A water bottle works using the same principle but they are harder to find.

I also find relief from taking fish oil pills and eating more fish. But every back pain is different.
