It's hard to sleep when you're in pain. If you don't want to take a pain pill, you might want to consider Advil PM. It will help with the pain and let you relax and fall asleep. Those pain meds really don't help you go to sleep, they just numb you for awhile.

Take your Advil PM with a warm glass of milk, that should help you sleep too. :-)
