I’ve always read and been told that sleeping on your stomach is bad for your spine and neck but after a workout or long day at work, I find that laying on my stomach for an hour or so while I read or scroll on my phone makes my back feel so much better. Am I doing more long-term harm than good with this? Why does it feel so good on my back but is bad for it? Is it just not recommended for long periods of time but beneficial for shorter periods?
Sometimes I lay on my stomach with my head hanging over the edge of the bed and the book on the floor. My bed is only like a foot tall though. My ex sat on one of the corners and it broke the leg so I took the rest of the legs off and made it into a low rider.
