Choosing the right sleeping position is also an effective way to reduce pain and sleep better for people with high uric acid.
Lying on your back, your bigoted leg hurts
This is the most recommended pose for experts. Just lie on your back normally and place a few soft pillows under your gout-prone legs so that the painful joint is higher than the heart. This pose helps blood circulate better, reducing inflammation in the joints.
Lying on your side without pain
If you only have pain in one leg, lie on your side (no pain).
Place a thin pillow between your knees to keep your body balanced, reducing pressure on the gout joints. This pose helps you sleep more comfortably without pressing on the painful area.
"zero gravity" pose
If you have a adjusted bed or a light head and leg knee, try lying in a position that lifts your head and legs at an angle of about 120 degrees.
This is a pose that is often used to reduce pressure on the spine and joints, while helping with better blood circulation.
