"Companion" is not good, my neck is very hurt
The neck is the narrowest part of the human body, but it is one of the most critical channels of the human body. If the human body is likened to a bottle, the neck is called the "bottleneck". The head is supported on the neck, and the trunk is attached to the trunk. The function is special. It can be carried on and off in the smallest range, focusing on the important blood vessels and trunk nerves of the human body, and transmitting various "information". Therefore, it is important to protect the neck.
In daily life, people always bow their heads and bend their necks. The ligaments and muscles behind the neck are always tightened. After a long time, they are easily fatigued.
Sleep is a good time to relax the cervical spine in a physiologically curved natural state. A person spends one-third of his life in sleep, and the pillow is the closest companion to our sleep. It is important to choose this "partner". If the pillow is selected or used improperly, such as too high or too low, the texture is too soft and hard, not only the quality of sleep is reduced, but also the neck tissue may be damaged, resulting in neck and shoulder pain.
Choose a "companion" and sleep well
There are a few tips on how to choose the pillow that suits you.
Pillow height
Healthy sleep should be maintained at the level of the head and the trunk when lying on the back. The pillow should be placed under the neck to keep the head slightly reclined. When lying on the side, the pillow should be shoulder height, which can make the neck and shoulder muscles form. Relaxed state.
The specific height of the pillow must be based on the individual's physiological curvature, sleep posture and age. In general, the pillow height of 3 to 6 years old is 3 to 6 cm, 7 to 10 cm for 7 to 11 years old, 9 to 12 cm for 14 to 15 years old, and 12 to 15 cm for adults. The length of the pillow is generally 10 to 16 cm wider than the shoulder width.
Long-term use of pillows, pillows are too low or too high, will have adverse effects on the neck muscles, ligaments, spinal cord, nerve roots, etc., and the correct use and selection of pillows, is conducive to spinal health and improve sleep quality.
2. Pillow shape
The ideal shape of the pillow is low in the middle, high in the periphery or low in the front and high, which can maintain the normal physiological curve of the cervical vertebra, and relax, nurse and protect the cervical vertebrae. At present, there are many kinds of pillows sold on the market, and the shape is often flat. Such a pillow, although beautiful in appearance, does not conform to the physiological curvature of the cervical vertebra.
3. Pillow hardness
Do not put the pillow core too hard, nor too soft, to comfort. The hard pillow has a small area in contact with the head, the pressure is increased, and the scalp is uncomfortable; on the contrary, the pillow is too soft to maintain a certain height, and the neck muscle is easily fatigued, which is not conducive to sleep. Therefore, the pillow should be slightly softer without losing a certain hardness.
In addition, if the pillow is too elastic, such as with a spring pillow, the head may be subjected to external elastic force, resulting in muscle fatigue and damage, so it is not suitable for long-term use. Buckwheat skin pillow is good, easy to adjust height, moderate elasticity, is a good choice.

The history of using medicine pillows in China is long. At present, there are many kinds of medicine pillows on the market. When choosing, you must be cautious. If you use it improperly, it will not be able to play its due role, but it will aggravate the original condition.
In general, mung bean pillow, chrysanthemum pillow, tea pillow, five-leaf pillow, white scorpion pillow, etc., have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, reducing fire and refreshing the brain, and are used well in the hot season, especially suitable for people with yin deficiency and fire. . Cassia pillow, magnet pillow, blood pillow, etc., for high blood pressure, cervical spondylosis, memory loss, low blood pressure is not suitable for use. It should be reminded that women who are in menstrual period and pregnancy should not use medicine pillows or water pillows, especially blood-supplement pillows, so as to avoid troubles.
When should I change the pillow?
The pillow should be replaced every 1-3 years. Because dirty and old pillows are prone to aphids, molds, etc., causing allergies or respiratory diseases. The self-examination criteria for whether the pillow should be replaced are as follows.
1. In the absence of related physical illness, the neck is often numb and sore after getting up.
2. The pillow has lost its elasticity. After tapping and adjusting the pillow, it quickly returns to flatness.
3. The pillow has agglomeration and unevenness, and the filler has mildew and other odors.
