The Body Often Hurts When You Wake Up In The Morning? Is This Cause And How To Prevent It
JAKARTA - Some people complain of pain in their bodies when they wake up in the morning. Despite sleeping soundly, some parts of the body hurt.
According to internal medicine expert from Max Hospital, India, Dr Rajiv Dang, the pain accident was due to several reasons, including fever, post-travel fatigue, dehydration, poor diabetes control and obstructive sleep apnea.
Meanwhile, Paras Hospitals consultant Dr Sanjay Gupta. He, as broadcast by The Indian Express recently mentioned some of the common causes of body pain, one of which is sleeping.
"In general, oblique sleep works best for most people, especially those who have breathing problems while sleeping, including obstructive sleep apnea," he said.
According to him, the body may also hurt if it is overweight. This is because the extra burden makes the neck and back tense and causes discomfort.
In addition, overweight can also cause breathing problems when a person sleeps, which will have a negative impact on sleep quality and feelings when waking up.
Physical pain you can come from your bed. A bad mattress is one of the main causes of body discomfort. The difficulty of breathing while sleeping can cause heart disease and stroke," said Gupta.
He said the best way to find out if a person has a sleep-respiratory condition is to undergo an examination with the help of a doctor.
On the other hand, orthopedic expert from New Delhi Dr. Aman Dua said that body pain in the morning is also the main symptom of joint inflammation such as rheumatoid arthritis. According to him, the stiffness in the morning is quite common, especially in elderly patients with joint pain and patients with an arthritis rheumatoid.
Internally ill consultant Paras Hospitals Dr Sanjay Gupta said, although body pain often occurs and can be caused by fatigue and inactivity, a person still needs to pay attention to the pain can also be a sign of other conditions.
"Although most of the body's pain is harmless, it remains important to know the cause and when to consult a doctor," he said as broadcast by The Indian Express, recently.
This pain, he continued, has levels and frequencies that may fluctuate. Pain may be described as blunt pain but lasts a long time or as an intense sporadic sensation.
According to Gupta, some were in pain, while others complained of muscle stiffness while waking up.
He said, doing hard physical work, lifting weights, or exercising often causes stiff muscles. When a person gets out of bed in the morning or gets out of the chair after a long sitting still, he can also feel stiff.
"Most often, the muscles become stiff because of the tension due to activity," he said.
Dr Gupta then shared steps to prevent and treat body pain in the morning, one of which was trying to sleep on the bed and many who provided enough neck and spine support.
Next, change your sleeping position. Pain in the morning can be exacerbated by sleeping on your stomach. Place the pillow below your knees and try sleeping on your back or on your side.
Avoid sleeping in an environment that is too cold. Then, while still in bed, try stretching each part of the body starting from the bottom. This allows the muscles to adjust before starting the day's activity.
When standing, move slowly and stretch your body. To feel relaxed and relieve pain from the night before, try taking a warm bath.
"Stable a healthy lifestyle. Start your day with a period of activity and exercise," Gupta ordered.
Then, if the pain continues to occur for more than 30 minutes to an hour in the morning, then you should go to the doctor for a check-up. Mutual inflammation, if not treated, can cause severe damage to joints and defects.
