Can You Wear a Shoulder Brace in Bed?

As technology develops, more and more people nowadays are suffering from various diseases caused by technological products, such as frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injuries and other problems, which even affect the quality of sleep problems. The donning of shoulder braces has become a solution for the treatment and prevention of shoulder problems. So, is it possible to wear a shoulder brace in bed?

In Which Cases Do You Need to Wear Shoulder Supports While You Sleep?

Shoulder dislocation: When doing strenuous exercise or accidentally falling, it can lead to severe displacement of the humeral head and swelling at the site of the injury. After a subluxation, even if the bone is reset, it can be easily dislocated again.

Frozen shoulder: Symptoms of frozen shoulder manifest as soreness, swelling and tingling, etc. The pain is especially pronounced at night which often leads to decreased sleep.

Bad sleeping position: Many people may have experienced waking up with pain on one side of their shoulder. There is research suggesting that different sleeping positions may predispose to different shoulder pathologies and shoulder pain, and shoulder pathologies may lead to deterioration of sleep quality, especially in older patients.[1]

Therefore, it happens that putting on shoulder braces at night while sleeping for these conditions is an effective treatment and helps to improve the quality of sleep.

Benefits of Sleeping with Shoulder Brace:

  • Fixing the shoulder joint

Shoulder support brace is effective in immobilizing the shoulder joint and reducing unnecessary movement, thereby alleviating the strain on shoulder muscles with ligaments and easing pain.

  • Boosting blood circulation

Donning shoulder support can disperse shoulder pressure, prevent cervical spine frozen shoulder, promote shoulder blood circulation, accelerate the metabolism of shoulder tissues, and be conducive to the repair of shoulder injuries.

  • Improving sleep quality

Shoulder supports hold the shoulders in place, reduce the number of times you roll over during sleep, reduce insomnia caused by pain, and allow people to fall asleep more quickly.

  • Relieving shoulder pain and stiffness

Such comfortable, soft and lightweight shoulder braces are able to keep on working even at night, improving stiffness symptoms and relieving shoulder pain practically.

 

Disadvantages of Sleeping with Shoulder Brace: 

Despite the fact that putting on shoulder sleeves can help relieve pain and improve sleep, if over-reliance, it may bring new problems instead. The lack of exercise for shoulder muscles can lead to muscle atrophy and weakening, which in turn aggravates the instability of the shoulder joint. In addition, if the material of shoulder support is not breathable, it is easy to breed bacteria, triggering skin allergies or infections. What's more, some patients may become overly anxious about the pain problems that occur in the shoulder, overly relying on shoulder supports and aggravating the psychological burden. Therefore, choosing the right shoulder support will restore your health and rejuvenate vitality.

So, How Should You Choose the Right Shoulder Brace to Wear While You Sleep?

1. Breathability:The body's metabolism slows down and body temperature decreases during sleep, which can lead to feeling hot while sleeping. Choosing a breathable material can reduce the stuffy feeling when wearing and improve the quality of sleep.
2. Softness: The material of the shoulder brace can better fit the curve of the shoulder, reduce friction and improve the comfort of donning. Besides, it will not affect the shoulder joint's range of motion in any sleeping position.
3. Support: For patients with shoulder injuries or surface injuries, opting for shoulder braces with stability support can prevent secondary damage to the injured area and help patients maintain proper sleep posture.
