Could it be a sleeping position that is causing your pain?

Chiropractor Vero Beach, Fl. - Sometimes chronic back pain can be a result of a simple sleeping position. “What does my neck hurt?” I’ll follow up that question with, “How do you normally sleep?” If you sleep on your stomach, that could be the problem. Think about it, laying with your head turned one direction for 8 straight hours could be the reason you are having chronic headaches or chronic neck pain. Sleeping positions are tough to change but can be done slowly. Go to sleep in your favorite position but when you wake up the first time, move to a better position. It’s much easier to go back to sleep when you have already been asleep. This can help you change your sleep position in gradual way until the new position just becomes normal.
