Is it bad for my back to keep sleeping on an air mattress?

We just moved and we’re moving again in a year, we got rid of my crappy old mattress when we moved, so my mom won’t get me a regular mattress until next time we move because she doesn’t want to have to move extra stuff, so she has me sleep on an air mattress in a regular bed frame. But the air mattress caves in, so I have to put boxes under it but they slide back out to the sides so there is always a trough in the middle that I fall into. I usually can’t fall asleep for at least an hour and I sometimes wake up with back pain. Am I permanently damaging myself? I’m 14.

Yes, air matresses aren’t good for your back. If you’re just feeling sore, my advice is to try sleeping in a different possition, or with extra pillows under and/or around you. If that doesn’t work, try sleeping somewhere else! Even a couch would do. It’s got some support, and definitely won’t slide out from under you. But, if you’re feeling true back pain, and you’re lacking necessary sleep, my advice is that you ask your parent for a matress. Yes, its extra weight when moving, but if you hurt your back badly at your age, there very well is a chance that it will cause permanant damage in the future. Spine’s are terribly delecate, and back pain is common nowadays. If space when you’re moving is the problem, I’m sure it could be strapped on top of a car.
Your back is important, and air matresses were never intended for long-time use. There’s no equal substitute to a real matress, but if that truelly isn’t an option, try getting memory-foam. There are matress-cover ones available that just go over what you already have, and it may help your back. BUT i still stick to just pressuring your parent to get a matress.
