I have one just below my testicles and I'm able to lie on my back on my alternating mattress without no difficulty. If, however, the sore is lying on the mattress it might be better, as someone else has already said, to turn on the side and lie there the entire night. Just for comfort you might want to have someone turn you every once in a while. If you're mattress does alternate properly, you should be able to stay there all night. Is the Invacare mattress a low air loss mattress?

(this mattress is only covered for warranty 30 days and 1st one has failed after 5 days ) they replaced the cheap air mattress--it seems to work ok and is made by invacare. ANYWAY---here is my main question== can I lay all night on the mattress even with a pressure sore??? or do you guys still need to be turned off that area??? me and my wife have almost no experience with this kind of issue--so we are trying to learn. Thank you, for all that have helped on this so far and to any that answer this !!! Dan H*** =
