What should I do if I can’t sleep due to back pain?

If you have back pain and can't sleep, and it's not relieved, it will affect your physical health or make you more susceptible to more diseases. So you can use mental hypnosis or dietary adjustments to help improve the situation.

1. Mental hypnosis: relax your whole body. Close your eyes and concentrate your mind on one part of your body. As your mind becomes more profound and your body becomes more relaxed, you will soon fall asleep. This state is equivalent to a dream state or trance state.

2. Self-fatigue method: Some people are relatively free during the day, so they are still very energetic at night. They can choose to do some activities before going to bed, such as taking a walk, playing chess, etc. When they are physically and mentally tired, they will fall asleep quickly by lying on the bed.

3. Music relaxation method: Scientific research shows that light music has a good effect on promoting sleep. First, you need to clear your mind and listen to music with natural sounds, such as the wind in the forest, the calm waves, and other regular wave sounds, which can help you fall asleep quickly.

4. Diet adjustment method: You can eat bananas and drink a glass of hot milk before going to bed, which will not only help you sleep, but also be helpful for your health. Don't drink coffee, tea or alcoholic beverages at night, and try to eat less candy and cereal. Eating too much for dinner will also affect sleep.

5. Soaking your feet before going to bed: Soaking your feet before going to bed can effectively relieve fatigue and promote sleep quality at night. The suitable temperature for foot soaking is 40-45 degrees. The soaking time should be maintained for more than 15 minutes, and the water should be above the ankle bone. It is best to keep a constant temperature and add appropriate amount of hot water when it gets a little cold.

6. Folk remedies: While trying the above methods, you can also try counting. First of all, you need to clear your mind. The method of counting sheep is to count from one sheep to one hundred sheep. You may fall asleep before counting to one hundred.
