If everyone sleeps for about eight hours a day, then one third of a person’s life will be spent on the bed. During sleep, the mattress is not only in direct contact with the human body, but also withstands all the weight, so the mattress is the key of healthy sleep.

Do you know when to change the mattress? The general life span of a spring mattress is about 10 years, but the mattress is a long-term product, and it is recommended to replace it every 5 or 7 years. In fact, if the mattress should be changed, it will inform you that if your mattress send out the following signal, it means you should change the mattress.

1. Back pain when getting up in the morning

If after a night of sleep, you still feel uncomfortable when you get up in the morning, often have symptoms such as back pain, mixed body fatigue, etc., it is time to check the mattress you are sleeping on. A mattress that fits you can relax your body and mind, and quickly recover your physical strength. On the contrary, an unsuitable mattress will affect your health subtly.

2. Sleep time is getting shorter and shorter

If the time you wake up in the morning has been reversed than before, for example, it is now earlier than the time you woke up in the morning a year ago. It means that your mattress has a serious problem. If the mattress lasts for too long, it will reduce the comfort, deform the internal structure, and not support you properly, or even cause the spine such as lumbar disc protrusion and lumbar muscle strain.

3. Can't sleep in bed

Many people complained that they don’t know the reason. They always turn around in bed at night and find it hard to fall asleep. This directly affects the normal work and life of the next day. Then, what about the problem of falling asleep at night? In fact, a good mattress can help you improve your sleep. Sleeping on it is like floating on a cloud, allowing blood circulation throughout the body to be smooth, reducing the frequency of turning over and falling asleep easily.

4. Unconsciously itchy skin

If you are troubled by inexplicable small yellow bubbles, redness, swelling, itching, and autumn measles, it may be the price paid for a low-priced and inferior mattress. Inferior mattresses are generally not treated with anti-mites, mites can cause skin itching, acne, pimples, allergic dermatitis, acute and chronic urticaria.

5. I always feel that the bed is uneven

Lying on the bed and tossing about it, it is obvious that it is sunken, or the bed always feels uneven, which means that the end of the mattress has been reached. Such a mattress cannot support evenly, deform the spine of the body, cause joint pain, and deform the bones of a child.

6. You can hear a clear squeak with a slight movement

Usually, when you turn over, you can hear the squeaking sound of the bed when you go to bed. Quiet nights are especially unpleasant. The squeaking noise of the mattress is due to damage to the spring, and the material and structure of the mattress are damaged, making it unable to support the weight. Such a mattress can no longer be used.

As long as one of the above six signals presents one, you can consider changing the mattress. If two or more are present, it means that it is time to change the mattress. For the health of yourself and your family, it is better to choose a good mattress to make your life healthier.
