How to sleep in a good position for cervical spine pain

When sleeping, patients with cervical spine pain can do the following two kinds of postures: 1. In the flat position, the pillow should not be too high or too low, but should be about one fist high, and the pillow should be placed at the back of the head to maintain the normal physiological curvature of the cervical spine, and try to choose a latex pillow because it has a good plasticity effect, which can maintain the curvature of the cervical spine and avoid fatigue and strain on the muscles and surrounding ligaments. 2, when lying on the side, try to choose the head, neck and torso in a straight line to avoid strain and pain symptoms on both sides of the cervical muscles. In addition, you must pay attention to the warmth of the cervical vertebrae in the sleep, not to appear cold, to avoid blowing air conditioning, fans and convection of doors and windows, and try to wear high-collared clothing, in order to effectively protect the cervical vertebrae. Before going to bed, you can use a warm water bag to apply heat to the cervical spine area, which can also prevent pain in the cervical spine at night when sleeping.
