If you wake up most days with pain below your chin, there are a few things you can try to alleviate this pain in the neck. The Harvard Medical School suggests:
Health Tips
* Sleep either on your back or your side. These positions place the least strain on your neck.
* Back sleepers should opt for a pillow that supports the neck’s curve, with a flatter section that supports the head.
* Consider a feather pillow that will mold itself around the neck.
* Use a pillow made with memory foam, which will shape itself around the head and neck.
* Do not use a pillow that is very tall or firm.
* Use a horseshoe-shaped pillow to support your neck while riding in a plane or car, or while watching television.
* Side sleepers should opt for a pillow that is taller under the neck area than under your head, so your spine stays straight.
