Back Pain Lying Down
Back pain lying down is one of the most unfortunate symptomatic expressions for any affected patient. Reclining to rest should be the most relaxing and comfortable position a person could ever find. However, for many
back pain
sufferers, lying down is when their pain begins or intensifies…

Back Pain Lying Down Causes
The actual reasons why pain might begin or get worse when reclining vary greatly. There might be an anatomical reason for this occurrence, such as a
fractured vertebrae
or bruised muscle which might be sensitive to pressure. Maybe moving a particular area of the body places undue stress on a sensitized or
pinched nerve.
The anatomical possibilities are virtually endless, but do not represent the average case of lying down back pain.The body is designed to seek rest in a reclining position and most painful complaints feel better when resting. Back pain which flares up when a patient lies down is typically related to
psychosomatic
factors.
Sleeping back pain,
in particular, is almost always caused by repressed psycho-emotional issues creating a
psychologically induced pain syndrome.
Lying Down Back Pain Treatment
If you have a verifiable physical cause of lying down pain, it is crucial to talk to your doctor about how you can remain pain free and still get your much needed rest. There must be some solution available and your care provider should help you to find it. For all other patients (95% of you reading this…), I highly recommend
knowledge therapy
as a means of understanding why your pain escalates illogically when you try to rest. Although the condition seems so anatomically motivated, the actual underlying source of symptoms is most likely
ischemia
enacted by a psychological process… Medical treatments have no hope of curing this type of pain, since they only address the symptomatic expression and do nothing to get to the root source.
Back Pain Lying Down Advice
You need to get some rest and relaxation. If this is difficult for you to achieve in a traditional reclining position, then experiment to find some relief. Try lying in different positions or even try a half seated / half lying position. Maybe a new
mattress
or
pillow
might be of assistance. While these products can be nice to own and may make anyone’s rest time more comfy, they are usually not the best answer for sleeping back pain. Any benefit imparted is likely to be derived mostly from the
placebo
effect. For these disturbing rest oriented
dorsopathy
issues, the answer to the pain almost always resides in the mind… NOT
the back.
