I swear most of the shit people say about aging is made up (or at least that it's not so cut-and-dry as "this starts happening the microsecond you hit 40 years of age"), I've been having this type of post-sleep-ache thing happen to me for as long as I can remember, at least since I was in my early 20s. Sometimes complications of having a shitty human body happen, as long as it's not something serious/chronic you just roll with it until it goes away.

Although also I noticed that losing a considerable amount of weight did help me with reducing general acheyness.

Haven't experienced such pain but I wake up every other day with numb fingers because I put my arm in the wrong position lmao

Yeah my shoulder has been fucked for a long time tho and sleep me is a shit and will roll onto it. Pain sometimes can be really intense and not let up for ages and also make my fingers go numb and feel stiff

I had this earlier this year while staying with my inlaws for a few weeks. The mattress in their spare room was a super uncomfortable spring type and the pillow was way too thin and soft. I think the way I was sleeping to compensate for the discomfort of the bed was also putting a ton of pressure on my shoulder joint.

What helped me was alternating the side I slept on, positioning my shoulder in a way to avoid putting pressure on it while sleeping, and in the morning doing shoulder circles to slowly iron out my range of motion.

Yea

I find that bolster pillows help
