You can certainly think that the position ON YOUR SIDE is the most manageable: the torsional forces are low and muscle tension is at a minimum. You can try using a small pillow under your side and/or one between your legs. The side position is definitely the first one to try: if you're thinking "well, I can't fall asleep in that position"... don't worry, it's just a matter of habit. It develops in a few days. Is the infamous "face down" position always inadvisable? Not necessarily: people with severe hyperlordosis are certainly better off avoiding it, but it's not uncommon to see people with disc problems feel better in the prone position (perhaps with the help of a pillow under their back or legs) and worse on their side: you have to try. The back position is rarely the most suitable: beyond the fact that for many it is really uncomfortable, in that position there is greater tension in the psoas muscle, which is often excessively contracted: you can think of getting around it with a pillow under your legs, but... well, it's definitely not easy to fall asleep in that position.
