There are many sleeping positions, which causes questions about whether or not they affect the health of the body. Health experts believe that sleeping on the stomach has several health risks, short and long term, according to the “Ba Bamil” website.
Most stomach-sleeping problems are caused by poor spine position.
When you lie on the stomach, the spine loses its natural curve, so you can feel tension or pressure in the back.
It can also lead to back pain in the morning or in more severe cases, chronic lower back pain.
Not only do you put pressure on your spine when sleeping on the stomach, but on the heart and lungs as well.
The stomach-sleeping position also causes the hips to be placed in the anterior position, which increases the curvature of the lumbar spine and can lead to intervertebral disc problems.
When sleeping on the stomach, in order to be able to breathe during sleep, you will often tilt your head to one side, this matter causes an imbalance of the neck and spine.
Not having the neck and spine in alignment while sleeping can cause many problems in the long term.
If your neck, back, and hips are not in a correct position, this sleeping position can cause chronic headaches.
A sprained neck can lead to pain in the neck and shoulder, and tight muscles can cause chronic headaches.
Studies have shown that sleeping on the stomach, especially in women, makes them more likely to form kidney stones, as moving the body during sleep in other ways, left and right, protects the body from the formation of stones, but sleeping on the stomach keeps the body without movement, and this leads to the deposition of stones more .
