A member asked:
The 2 large muscle groups next to my spine in my back pain and cause discomfort when i lay down too long (8hrs +) what could be the problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain after lying dow: Low back pain after prolonged lying down is often due to muscle stiffness occurring during poor posture in the supine position. This causes the normal curvature to flatten out. This type of low back discomfort gradually subsides after you're up and around. Try changing your position while supine. Use a good firm mistress. See an MD as needed for evaluation.
