If back pain is persistent or severe, do not assume a mattress will solve it. It can help sleep comfort, but pain can come from posture, injury, work habits or other issues. A good mattress is one piece.

People keep telling me to buy a firm mattress for back pain, but I’m worried too firm will make my hips and shoulders hurt.
AI Summary
People discuss back pain, mattress firmness and why supportive does not always mean rock-hard.
Answers & Discussion
Medium-firm worked best for me because it had support without feeling like the floor. I also needed a better pillow and stretching routine. The mattress helped, but it was not the only factor.
Firm does not mean better for everyone. The mattress needs to keep your spine supported while still letting pressure points sink a bit. A rock-hard bed made my back worse because my hips could not settle.
