As a back sleeper, what kind of mattress should I get to avoid stiff and painful mid-to-lower back?

For a back sleeper, a firm mattress is a perfect choice. Because a firm or medium firm mattress can hold your spine, hip, back and all important joints perfectly and give you comfort

My preference for best sleep and back health outcomes is a firm or a medium-firm, with a 3″ comfort topper.
I do not use box springs because, my opinion, they are silly, expensive and environmentally wasteful, but place on slats (on under-bed storage) that have some resilience.
The topper gives the feel of comfort over boney prominences yet protects body alignment during sleep.
Sleeping on your stomach isn't a good thing for alignment. Better to prop stomach against a big pillow for the feel.
That's what I have on this.
