The benefits and drawbacks of neck pillows
The benefits of neck pillows include cervical correction and prevention of cervical spondylosis, while the drawbacks include headaches and decreased mobility. It is recommended to choose a suitable neck pillow according to one's own needs and use it during lunch breaks, desk work, or long-distance transportation.
1、 Benefits:
1. Cervical correction: A neck pillow is usually placed on the cervical spine. If you suffer from cervical spondylosis and are prone to falling off the pillow while sleeping, accompanied by neck pain, you can use a neck pillow to help promote the recovery of the straightened cervical spine to its normal physiological curvature;
2. Preventing cervical spondylosis: Neck pillows can protect the cervical spine and provide comfort, reducing local joint bending and helping to prevent cervical spondylosis. If a neck pillow with massage function is used, it can massage the local area during sleep, promote blood circulation, relieve local muscle fatigue, and improve muscle spasms.
2、 Disadvantages:
1. Headache: If a suitable neck pillow is not chosen during sleep, it may cause discomfort in the cervical spine, such as muscle spasms, and even compression of local nerves, leading to headaches;
2. Decreased mobility: Improper use of neck pillows may cause local damage and may lead to neck pain, which in severe cases can affect neck mobility.
When choosing a neck pillow, it is necessary to choose the appropriate height according to one's own situation. If the neck pillow is too high, it will cause excessive pressure on the neck, causing the cervical spine to tilt forward and some parts of the cervical spine to be under excessive pressure. And if the neck pillow is too low, not only can the neck not relax, but it can also disrupt the normal curvature of the cervical spine.
