I sometimes experience chest wall pain after sleeping in a hammock. I think it has to do with lying on my back in the same position. If I wake up during the night in the hammock with the pain, I can alleviate it by rolling to my side or stomach (not great in a hammock). After I get up in the morning and start moving around, the pain goes away. Someone mentioned I may have my hammock (Hennessey Expedition Zip) with insufficient slack in the ridgeline. Anyone else encounter this? Would a "bridge style" hammock help?
I've already contemplated the pain being cardiac in origin and excluded this possibility.
