“If your neck is bent in any way for an extended period of time, you’ll get uncomfortable,” explains Matthew O’Rourke, a physical therapist at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. He says a pillow that’s too soft or too firm often leads to neck pain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For example, if you sleep on your side with a soft pillow that doesn’t provide enough support under your neck, your head has to extend sideways to meet the pillow. If you sleep on your stomach\u2014a position that hyperextends the neck backward\u2014then using a firm pillow pushes the head back even farther. “If you’re on your stomach with your head to the side, you’re sleeping in a full rotation position, and that can become painful,” O’Rourke says.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
