How To Treat Severe Lower Back Pain Caused Due To Sleeping Posture?

I am in the process of trying out a foam medium firmness. I was sleeping on a spring coil for many years. I have 120 days to make up my mind. I did look at one of their beds that is very soft and comfortable. It will cost $1500. more. I have severe low back pain and want the mattress that is best for me.

Hi
In my opinion patients with back pain are most comfortable when they sleep on firm mattresses which compensate for body shape by getting contoured accordingly AND the contour changes with the posture .
Any firm mattress will be good. Special mattresses are nothing more than marketing practices. Get the treatment of your back pain under orthopedic surgeon.
