Struggling to know how to sleep with lower back pain? Even though an estimated eight in 10 of us experience the issue, it's sometimes difficult to know how to handle the aches, twinges, and niggles that prevent us from having a good night's sleep.

The lower back, also called the lumbar spine, is a section of five bones supported by a complicated interlocking of muscles and nerves.
