Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter says blaming your bed for morning joint pain keeps you from finding the real cause. After months of shoulder or knee discomfort, a new pillow won't fix it. Look for actual biomechanical problems instead of buying more stuff.
You didn't sleep wrong for 8 straight months. A lot of people explain away recurring joint pain with the same line, I must have slept weird. I hear it all the time with shoulders. Once, sure, but if you're buying new pillows, changing mattresses, stretching every morning, and still waking up in pain, then it may be time to stop blaming your bed. Because once you understand what's actually contributing to it, you can stop guessing and start making decisions based on your body and not another pillow advertisement.
