Mattress topper for rib pain

Hi,
I have a Helix Midnight luxe medium hybrid mattress. It is about 6 months old. I am having some rib pain and think that area of the mattress is a bit too firm. I am looking for a topper. I go between side and back. I have looked at the Saatva graphite, the Temperpedic ( had their mattress didn’t work). Would love some help. * side note have had 3 spine surgeries in the last 3 years. Thanks.

I also experience rib pain sometimes, and mine is probably related to bad posture when sitting in front of a computer for too long. When getting worse, it can make my whole body feel uncomfortable. Sometimes following stretching videos on YouTube can help me.

Hi Mascasa10.

Welcome back to the forum! Sorry to hear about the pain and surgeries :frowning:

Is the rib pain new, or did it also come on about 6 months ago when you got the new mattress?

It has gotten worse I believe with the mattress. More consistent. I have costochondritis that flares for periods, but this is different a bit. I wake up with the upper thoracic pain. Been looking all over for something to maybe support there but not too firm.
