Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Usually, the higher the density of the foam the better it is. So choose a mattress with high-density foam and then sleep on it in different positions. If you feel comfortable then go for it. If you are uncomfortable then reduce the density of the foam till you find your own comfort zone.
If possible find a mattress which has a combination of coir below and foam on top mattress. Do not go for very soft mattress. The mattress should support your back when you are sleeping.
I hope this answered your query.
