New Mattress Regrets
Just bought a fancy new mattress thinking it would help my back but somehow I'm in even more pain now. Spent way too much money to return it so I need to make this work somehow. What's the best way to sleep when you have lower back pain? Like specific positions or pillow arrangements or something? I'm willing to try literally anything because these sleepless nights are killing me.

I feel this — my brother upgraded his mattress and woke up feeling like he’d wrestled a truck. What helped him was adjusting position instead of blaming the bed: on his back with a pillow under the knees to ease spinal pressure, or on his side with one between the legs to keep the hips aligned. It takes a few nights for your body to adapt, too. He found some surprisingly practical tips here sleeping tips for back pain sufferers and tweaked his setup. A week later he admitted the mattress wasn’t the enemy — just needed better support.
