Li You is a 40-year-old secondary school teacher. Recently, he has often felt severe shoulder pain when he wakes up in the morning.
At first, he thought it was just an accident. One morning, the pain left him almost immobile, and his wife, Ms. Zhang, rushed him to the hospital.
At the hospital, after an examination, the doctor told Li You that his shoulder pain could be related to his own sleeping position. Doctors have identified several sleeping positions to avoid.
For example, if the pillow is too high or too low when sleeping on your side, it can also cause uneven stress on the neck and shoulders, causing muscle pain. In addition, resting your arms on your head while sleeping can also increase the pressure on your shoulders.
At the same time, the doctor also advised him to do some shoulder and neck stretching exercises during the day. After returning home, Li You adjusted his sleeping position according to the doctor's advice and began to insist on doing shoulder and neck relaxation exercises every day Xi.
Through Li You's story, we can learn that sleeping posture is important to our own body. Having a correct sleeping position can help us avoid pain in the cervical spine and shoulders and ensure a good quality of sleep.
After Li You's shoulder pain was relieved, he became interested in other aspects of sleep, especially the choice of sleeping products.
He realized that in addition to his sleeping position, the right sleep products were essential for maintaining a good night's sleep and preventing muscle pain. Li You decided to change his mattress and pillows.
On the advice of his doctor, he chose a memory foam mattress that would provide good support and conform to the curves of his body. Memory foam mattresses can reduce pressure points on the body, especially for the support of the spine and joints.
As for the choice of pillow, Li You chose a pillow with a moderate height that can support himself. The doctor explained that different pillow heights can cause problems with the curvature of your cervical spine, which can cause discomfort in your shoulder and neck.
In addition, Li You also noticed the material problem of his bedding. He opted for breathable cotton bedding to ensure comfort while sleeping and maintaining a proper body temperature.
By changing sleeping products and adjusting his sleeping position, Li You's sleep quality has been significantly improved, and his shoulder pain has also been improved in the long term.
Through Li You's story, we can realize that the right sleeping position and the right sleep products are essential for maintaining good sleep and good health.
We need a comfortable and supportive environment for a good night's sleep, which can help us to avoid painful muscles and sleep disturbances, so as to ensure adequate and high-quality sleep.
