In my life, I’ve tried a soft mattress, then a hard mattress, then a middle mattress. They all were expensive and all sucked.
Or maybe they didn’t and I just can’t expect a mattress to heal or prevent back pain.
What I know is that with my body stature and my sleeping habits, I should be choosing the softest type or second softest at the max. But soft mattresses suck the most.
Right now I have a middle one and I am only experiencing back pain - I mean severe lower back pain that leaves me unable to move - in the mornings after getting up. It gets better during the morning and day. My guess is that it is because I am forced to sleep on my back when I would like to roll over, but I don’t know for sure.
Damn that sounds rough. Definitely sounds like your issues extend past just the mattress. You’re definitely right that there is only so much a mattress can do if you have back complications. It’s worth seeing a doctor if you haven’t already.
Have you tried foam mattresses? Sounds like you have, but if not maybe it’s worth a shot.
