Stomach Sleeping , May Be Wreaking , Havoc on Your Health.
'New York Post' reports that sleeping
on your stomach may come with
a number of potential health issues.
Experts say the biggest complaint
from people who sleep on their
front is having lower back pain.
If you already have
neck and back problems,
sleeping in this position
is almost guaranteed
to make them worse, Dr. Tony Nalda, Scoliosis Reduction Center, via New York Post.
According to Dr. Tony Nalda from the Scoliosis
Reduction Center, stomach sleeping can also make
breathing difficult as it compresses the diaphragm.
The sleeping position also puts
stress on the heart, which can make it
more difficult for blood to circulate.
Over time, this increases the
risk of cardio issues, especially
if you already have problems.
If you struggle to breathe deeply,
it can lead to higher blood pressure, Dr. Tony Nalda, Scoliosis Reduction Center, via New York Post.

Sleeping with a twisted neck, like in the front
sleeping position, can also result in migraines,
pinched nerves and even neurological issues.
According to the Sleep Foundation, stomach
sleeping can also lead to more wrinkles because of
how the position smushes your face against the pillow.
The experts say that changing sleeping
positions can be an easy fix that could improve
both your quality of sleep and your health.
Sleeping on your back or
your side offers significantly
more health benefits and less
discomfort than sleeping
on your stomach, Sleep Foundation, via New York Post.
Experts say that side sleeping can help
people who suffer from sleep apnea,
as the position helps keep the airway open.
Meanwhile, sleeping on your back
can help people with lower back pain,
as it helps with spine alignment
