Avatar f tn My surgery is Thursday 4/2/15 for which I bought a travel neck pillow (which the ends snap together forming a circle) to allow me to lay my head on it with opened area over incision. Not the one with beads in it, but one with comfort memory foam & cooling materials that I actually found at Ross department store. Curious to see if this worked for anyone.
1285653 tn?1288358629 OH OH OH. Dang that Chiari Monster. He wiped my short term memory again. UHHHHH. Forgot to put this in sleep post. However, it might be good to have it's own. :D I read about a chiari pillow online. Can I PLEASE get all of your awesome ideas on pillows? Currently a body pillow is used on top of a foam mattress (when I haven't crashed in the chair). My BF has an awesome pillow for me.The neck pillow by Temperpedic. I rest soundly there.
Avatar f tn s been suffering from her neck cracking, she finds this very painful she discribes it as lightning in her neck or it cracking like when you crack a stick. She also suffers from neck pain at night she only has 1 small pillow but complains that her neck hurts and thinks it's because her heads been too high. I remember having the exact same promblem starting at the same age around 8years hers started at that age too. I remember not wanting to turn my head because I was scared of the pain.
Avatar n tn Without medication pain level is above 10, after medication pain level is 9. My pain is so severe that it appears to lock the turning of my neck to the right. I am asking for any help regarding if there is exercises for this type of problem. My mornings after waking are the worse for me. I have been sleeping with 2 pillows under my legs, flat on my back, and 1 pillow under my head but this doesn't seem to be helping either. Is there any help for me?
Avatar f tn My neck and shoulder part ( just below the neck) hurtsa lot. Wat kind of pillow do u suggest or no pillows at all? I sometimes use a standarad rectangular pillow below my knees.
620923 tn?1452915648 I have yet to find a pillow that doesn't hurt my neck/head!! But, I haven't tried the chiari pillow yet!! Mainly because of price AND because I hate having to order things off the internet (I'm so "old skool" when it comes to purchasing products... love to do the research online... but I always want to go and buy the product at a store!). But... I currently have 6 different pillows on my bed (I only use one at a time) and they ALL hurt me!! Two of them are from Ikea.
Avatar f tn There were days that I did not have a headache but when I did it was often accompanied by neck pain and mild jaw pain. I have noticed that when I do not have headaches, I feel a little lightheaded. A friend of mine suggested trying something as simple as sleeping with 1 pillow. Right around the time all this started I began sleeping with two pillows. Helps with the headaches a bit but not the lightheadedness. Ibuprofen helps with the headaches.
18793859 tn?1468050329 Only thing that could be a pain is turning over with the pillow, but I found that I usually slept on my left side all night.
Avatar f tn FM can cause all kinds of pains, sometimes excruciating for me. With my neck, I start with a good pillow.......and do gentle stretching of my neck. Give it a try, it may help you too rather than going to another doctor. I sure know how frustrating it is.
Avatar f tn So I got neck pain, headaches, shoulder pain, leg pain, and tenderness. I just started back working (because of this economy, not because of my back pain), and I swear I am in the worst pain ever. I can not sit up straight, in the same spot, for too long. Even when I'm leaned against a pillow in bed or on the sofa, my back and neck aches. I stay in pain!!
5154898 tn?1374773319 ve been having some upper back pain, along with terrible neck pains at night, like my neck is going to fall off, I also get headaches about every other day!! I know that I am a terrible sloucher, could this be from poor posture? or something more serious?!
Avatar f tn I've been on gapepentin for over a year for spinal stenosis, usually it works but not for this. The pain is at the bottom of head in the back.
Avatar m tn I may get a good down pillow as i sleep on my tummy The Support of a Good Down Pillow A good down pillow can give you the support your head and neck need when you sleep. If you suffer from chronic neck pain than a down pillow can be a good option. A down pillow also can last in excess of ten years with the proper care. There are several different types of down pillow that you have to choose from.
Avatar f tn When I was having really bad neck pain my mom got me a memory foam pillow (I think from Cosco). It was a lot harder than I was used to and I had to get used to sleeping with it but after a few nights my neck pain got so much better!! Now I can't live without it. However, some Chiarians didn't do well with the memory foam so you sort of have to try it out and see..but like I said, give it a few nights before you make a decision.
8485412 tn?1398416792 washing dishes, putting a pillow case on a pillow, sleeping on my back while using a pillow, ETC. I get a severe burning sensation/ pain on both sides of the spine right at mid to lower shoulder blade level. THE STORY. 29 years old, started football when i was 7. Played up until i was 19 including 1 yr of JUCO. Had a problem with stingers pretty much the last 4 years of my career. To the point, i was told if i got another i could not play anymore. I decided to give up the sport.
Avatar n tn About 3 or 4 days ago I started getting pain starting on both sides of my neck, starting at my jaw line. It radiates down and into my shoulders. It's a kind of burning pain. Don't take any medications. When it happens it lasts a few minutes then stops but usually starts again right away, then stops totally.
Avatar f tn I neck and shoulders were killing me when I also and throughout the day. I have had little to no back pain all day or night since getting this pillow. I highly recommend it!
Avatar f tn s way worse!!! Every time I move my neck it hurts. When I turn it to the side, Its a pretty sharp pain about an 8 out of ten that shoots all the way from the top to bottom. Letting my head lay straight down doesn't really hurt. Turning it in any way or putting it back hurts. Sleeping hurts. And I never rallied how much Swoosh my head to move my bangs until recently, when it started to hurt. I am so tired of this.
Avatar n tn This gave me a fit for a couple of years. The first year I experienced neck pain and severe headaches to the point my doctor thought I had some nerve damage. They put me in the hospital ran all sort of test, gave me several types of pain medicine ever 4 hours for 24 hours. Then they release me with a ton of prescription to fill. The neorolgist said there were no pinched nerve at that time.
Avatar f tn Yes, I put a small pillow at my waist, a pillow between my legs, and a pillow under my neck. That was I'm all straight when I'm sleeping.
Avatar f tn Did you have an FNA recently, Tricia? The reason I ask is because two weeks after my FNA I had neck pain on the whole left side that felt like I had whiplash and I also had a cold/sore throat. The neck pain lasted about a week and the sore throat lasted maybe 3 days. No one else seemed to think it was related to the FNA, but I couldn't figure out anything else it could be.
Avatar f tn My best pillow is the neck pillow for travel. The open space is where my neck is so I feel no pressure. The donut cradles my skull so I slept on my back. I can reverse it to sleep prone for about 20 minutes. When I sleep on my side the donut supports my forehead and jaw. I spent extra for the memory foam. Everyone is different: Nothing touches my neck if I want to sleep.
