A member asked:
How do i explain to my husband that sleeping in my recliner helps with my back pain more than sleeping in our bed does? is there any basis for that?

Is your mattress a good one? Yes,it's possible that there may be less stress on your spine sleeping semi upright. Most stress on the spine occurs when lying on your back. Sleeping on your side with a pillow between your legs is the most recommended measure to prevent or reduce back pain while sleeping.
