Waking up with body aches may be caused by intense physical exercise before sleep, leading to excessive lactic acid buildup in the body. It could also result from inadequate warmth during sleep, exposing the body to cold air and triggering upper respiratory tract infection and inflammation. Additionally, patients with arthritis may also experience such symptoms.
