Arkansas Surgical Hospital issued the following announcement on July 26.

After a good night’s sleep, you hope to wake up feeling refreshed and pain-free. It doesn’t always work that way. Some people wake up with hip pain in the morning and are mystified. They are surprised that resting all night and taking the weight off their hips leads to discomfort instead of relief.

It may be something as simple as the way you’re sleeping. If your mattress is too soft and doesn’t correctly support and align your body, you can wake up with hip pain. Your sleeping position can also make your hips hurt. Sleeping on your stomach sometimes triggers hip and lower back pain. Try sleeping on your side or back, preferably with a pillow behind or between your legs for support.
