Pillow Suggestions - Shoulder Pain

[Shamon30]

I've been having these same issues, along with 5 bulging discs (2 in my neck, 3 in my back) and wake up every morning with excruciating neck/shoulder/back pain. Any mattress pillow combination success stories for those with similar issues?

I feel for you. There were times when I could only find relief in a recliner.

Coop - you’re welcome.

Gotta hand it to you @Zionn . Been sleeping on a Coop for 4 nights now, and that is one hella comfortable pillow…plus no shoulder pain yet. I appreciate the suggestion. How long do these things typically last before flattening out, in your experience?

Good to hear. I got one for my wife for her birthday, which is at the end of the month, and it just arrived today.

I‘m still good with my tempurpedic neck pillow, but I figure if I like hers well enough I‘ll get another for myself.

Never - I've turned so many on to this pillow. Complete gamechanger.

Coop for the win. 1 year with it and I am shocked how I love it. Still haven't added any of the extra "Oooomph."

Hey folks, wondering if any of you might have some ideas for this issue I’m having.

I sleep on my side and tend to keep my arm up and under the pillow, sort of supporting my head/pillow. From what I’ve read that’s not a great sleep position, and I’m starting to notice it with some serious shoulder pain. I’ve seen a number of sites that claim to address this problem, but I’m kinda at information overload so I’m looking for some suggestions from you fine people. I know we’ve had extensive discussions about mattresses on here, but can anyone recommend a good pillow for dealing with shoulder pain in that kind of sleep position?

Thanks in advance y’all!

Happens to me every couple years (cervical radiculopathy). The right pillow helps, but the only thing that absolutely works for me is a six day prednisone pack. Six the first day, five the second, and so on.

Call your doctor or go to a walk in clinic.

For me, the pain is gone in about a day.
