Poor sleeping habits are a common cause of neck pain, but they're also simple to fix. Several remedies for sleeping problems-related neck pain are outlined by Healthline.
Make sure you're using the proper pillow height; one that's too high or low can lead to discomfort in the neck. In order to avoid aggravating your neck pain, use a cushion that supports a neutral cervical spine alignment.
Keep your neck pain-free by always sleeping on your back. The strain on your head, neck, and spine can be minimized because of this.
If you suffer from neck pain, it may be time to replace your mattress. If your mattress is more than 7 years old, you should think about replacing it with a new one.
If you tend to wake up with a stiff neck in the morning, sleeping on your stomach is something you should try to avoid. If you can help it, you should get out of this situation.
Tense muscles are a common source of neck pain and should be stretched out before bed. Back, neck, and shoulder problems might all benefit from a gentle stretching routine just before bed.
The blue light from electronics can disrupt sleep, and gazing at a screen for too long can create muscle strain in the neck, so it's best to avoid them in the hours leading up to bedtime. It's recommended that you put away the screens at least one hour before you hit the hay.
To get a better night's sleep and lessen the likelihood of waking up with a sore neck, try implementing some of these strategies. Please see a doctor or physical therapist for further evaluation and treatment if your pain persists or worsens significantly.
