Why does sleeping in a soft bed hurt your back? Is it better to sleep in a soft bed or a hard bed?
Basically, except for the army and schools, they are all soft beds now. Many people say that sleeping in a soft bed hurts, so why does sleeping in a soft bed hurt? Soft bed or hard bed? Let's introduce it below!

Why does sleeping in a soft bed hurt your back 1? Why does sleeping in a soft bed hurt your back? When sleeping in a soft bed, the contact area between various parts of the body and the bed surface will increase, and the squeezed area will also increase, which will easily affect the blood circulation of the body, thus causing waist and leg pain. People suffering from lumbar muscle strain, hyperosteogeny and cervical spondylosis will get worse if they sleep in a soft bed.

2. The harm of children sleeping in soft beds is that their spine is immature and plastic. Sleeping on a soft bed, the body collapses on the spring bed, and the fatigue of the back muscles cannot be recovered, and it will be pulled more tightly, making it difficult to recover the spine. After a long time, the spine will bend and the curve of the body will change. In severe cases, there will be acquired deformities such as hunchback and shoulder tilt.

It is better to sleep in a soft bed or a hard bed. During daytime activities, the spine is always in a state of compression, forming three bends of the neck, chest and waist. Sleeping on a hard bed can eliminate the fatigue of ligaments and muscles during the day, and the spine is not easy to form lateral curvature when sleeping on the side, which is easy to recover.

4. What is not suitable for sleeping on a hard bed? Although it is good to sleep on a hard bed, not everyone is suitable for sleeping on a hard bed. People with vasculitis or varicose veins or people who are too thin are not suitable for sleeping on hard beds. Because the microvessels in their bodies are too exposed, sleeping on a hard bed can easily lead to blood vessel compression and congestion, congestion or numbness of limbs.

At present, there is a very popular view that a soft bed is better than a hard bed, which can sleep better and is more beneficial to health, especially to the spine. But this is not the case. German plastic surgeon Thomas? Professor Lasser believes that sleeping on a hard bed is not good for sleep or human health, because the hard bed surface can not meet the needs of human body curve, which will cause serious burden and cause various injuries to muscles and spine.

It is not good to sleep on a hard bed. How about sleeping in a soft bed? It is customary to think that the wire spring bed is the most advanced and comfortable, but it is not, because no matter which posture is taken, the middle of the body will sink and the trunk will form an arc, which will overload the ligaments around the spine and increase the physiological curvature of the lumbar spine, which will cause low back pain for a long time; Especially for patients with osteoarthropathy such as lumbar disc herniation and proliferative spondylitis, sleeping in a soft bed for a long time will aggravate the symptoms. In addition, sleeping in a soft bed often makes the muscles trapped in the mattress unable to relax, and the internal organs of the chest and abdomen are easily oppressed and can not get enough rest.

It is obvious that the bed is too hard and soft. The ideal bed should be moderate in hardness, and the cotton pad with a thickness of about 10 cm has the best hardness. Such a thick cotton pad can meet the needs of human body surface curve, maintain the integrity and normal physiological curvature of the spine, and is beneficial to sleep and health.

Besides the hardness of the bed, we should also pay attention to its height. The height of the bed is generally about 40~50 cm, that is, it is better to be slightly higher than the knee of the sleeper. So you don't have to work hard to get into bed. You can stretch your legs and wear shoes when you get out of bed.

The bed should be wider. Generally speaking, its length is 20~30 cm longer than that of the sleeper, and its width is 30~40 cm wider than that of the sleeper, so that it can stretch when sleeping, which is beneficial to blood circulation and fatigue elimination.

Is it better for teenagers to sleep in soft beds or hard beds? 1. The advantage of sleeping on a hard bed is that it is good for bones and skin. For the growing teenagers, who can prevent hunchback by hard bed? For patients with lumbar disc herniation, doctors will specifically tell them to sleep in a slightly harder bed.

The advantage of sleeping in a soft bed is that it is more comfortable. Thick beds with cushions will make people lie more comfortable, fall asleep faster and give people more sense of security. However, it is obvious that the soft bed has great pressure on the spine and lumbar spine, and the muscles in the collapsed area cannot relax.

3. The hardness of the bed should be moderate, and the thickness of the mattress should not exceed ten centimeters. Too soft and hard bed will reduce the quality of sleep and affect human bones. Scientific research has found that a mattress of about 10 cm is most suitable for human body curves and bone radians, and is the most comfortable.

Precautions:

Besides, the bed should not be too high, but wider. Choose a four-piece suit made of cotton or mulberry silk fabric for more comfortable sleep.
