Lower Back Pain and Choosing the Right Mattress
Lower back pain is one of the most common and strenuous injuries people suffer year after year. It can affect the back anywhere from below the ribs to your upper legs. The lower back bears most of the body’s weight and can become a chronic injury. The good news is most back pain can dissipate with proper rest and rehabilitation time. One of the most common themes for those who suffer from back injuries is finding the right mattress and comfort to get a good night sleep.
A recent study done by the Funen Back Center in Denmark assigned 160 patients with lower back pain to sleep in three different style mattresses for one month. Although the study returned mixed results, more of the patients find soft mattresses better for their back pain, as opposed to harder and firmer ones. According to Dr. Robert Molinari, MD, associate professor of orthopedics at the University of Rochester Medical Center, the failure to identify the exact cause of the patients back pain made the study more difficult to interpret. The key is finding the right mattress for you and not follow a generic code of procedure. Every back pain is different and different remedies may work for different people.
