Every individual is different, there is no "one-size-fits-all" position to sleep. One needs to follow what works for their body and sleep needs. Sleeping on left side curling your legs and placing a pillow in between your knees is good for low back, during pregnancy, reduces snoring and acid reflux. Lying on stomach is good for snoring and sleep apnea. Sleeping flat on your back protects the spine, relieves hip and knee pain.

I'm a bit confused and worried. The doctor first suggested I take Montec LC for three days, but then after one day, they added Azee500 for another three days. Is it okay to take both medications at the same time, or could there be any issues with that?

Can I switch to getting the rest in my arm instead, or is it better to stick with the buttocks? If sticking with the buttocks is the way to go, do you have any tips on how to make it hurt less?

I've been dealing with a fever for about three days now and I've tried taking paracetamol and tromanil forte, which got my body temperature back to normal. But I'm still feeling really weak and achy.
