Hes 71 I think. Past 3 days bes been complaining about his back pulling on the right side. He gets up at 4 am and moans more. I think it has gotten worse. But our mattresses in the house will kill you. I always end up waking up once in a while with a kink in the neck. Or start tossing and turning.
Hes had back problems in the past in his lower left back. This is in the right part middle back. Thats the side he was sleeping on. So I dont think its anything serious, Its just the moaning in pain getting to me lol
Should he take some aspirin and sit up straight and wait for it to go away?

If the ma tresses are this bad, then go and get a sheet of 3/4 plywood and put it between the ma tress and the box screen, he should feel relief from this, plus, put a pillow between his knees while sleeping, it works great. If this doesn't help, he'll have to see a doctor.

In addition to maybe finding a different mattress I would recommend that he see his doctor for further evaluation because of how long he has had the pain.

A new mattress is probably the first thing and then a visit to a chiropractor
