I know going to a doctor/chiropractor would probably be best to start with but I have to wait until I have insurance for that. I can't afford it out of pocket. So I am looking for tips, tricks, approaches, and really any information that has helped you or someone you know.
Starting about 2 months ago, I began waking up sore. My shoulders and middle back, sometimes my neck and lower back - I just hurt so much in the morning. I am sore for a number of hours after waking and feel better as the day goes on but I still feel stiff. Someone told me I might need a new mattress but I had just gotten one in November. Unless it took time and this is the source of my issues? I got the same brand and kind of mattress I had before, just a bigger size. I don't know if it would make sense for the new mattress to be causing issues.
Anyways, what are some things I can work on at home to improve things until I am able to see a doctor?
