Attention should be paid to the fact that sweat and air vapor on the body surface will enter the pillow core during sleep, which will not only affect the elasticity of the pillow, but also be harmful to the cervical spine. Therefore, it is necessary to often let it bask in the sun to keep it soft and dry. When sleeping on the side, the pillow should not be pressed under the shoulder.
