What is occipital muscle ache to return a responsibility?

summary

As we all know, we spend about seven hours a day in sleep. Whether the pillow is suitable or not will not only affect the quality of our sleep, but also affect the health of cervical vertebra. In severe cases, it may induce a series of cervical spondylosis. Let's share my experience with you.

What is occipital muscle ache to return a responsibility?

If you sleep on a pillow too high, it will change the normal physiological curvature of the cervical spine, causing muscle fatigue damage and ligament strain, spasm, inflammation, and emergence of neck and shoulder pain, hand numbness, dizziness and other symptoms.

Moreover, if the pillow is too high, the cervical spine will be mechanically twisted in the forward flexion position, which will increase the back muscle tension. At the same time, it will also lead to intense activities of sternocleidomastoid muscles on the left and right sides of the neck, hinder the normal blood circulation of the human body, affect the smooth flow of the respiratory system, and cause shoulder pain.

High pillow makes the cervical spine too forward, neck soft tissue too tense, fatigue, prone to stiff neck, over time will also cause morphological changes in the neck bone, such as physiological bending, straightening, stretching.

matters needing attention

If the pillow is too low, it will also make the cervical spine in a disadvantageous state, leading to sternocleidomastoid muscle tension, unable to achieve the due purpose of eliminating fatigue. Will make the head hyperemia, easy to cause eyelids and facial edema, and the jaw will therefore lift up, easy to open mouth breathing, snoring.
