Feeling extremely tired and experiencing body aches during sleep at night may be caused by intense physical exercise or overexertion before bedtime, leading to excessive accumulation of lactic acid in the skeletal muscles. It could also result from inadequate warmth preservation, causing cold exposure and subsequent upper respiratory tract infection, with inflammatory factors stimulating the muscles throughout the body. Additionally, long-term mental stress and anxiety may also trigger these symptoms.
