What mattress firmness is best for back pain?

Most mattresses should be replaced every 7-10 years. Replace sooner if you wake feeling sore or stiff, notice visible sagging, or sleep better in other beds than your own.

Neither is strictly better - it comes down to personal preference. Memory foam contours closely and reduces partner movement but can feel warmer. Pocket spring is more responsive and breathable. The best choice is what feels right for you when you lie on it.
