Sore Nose (contd)

Posted by BaS on February 24, 2006 at 01:02:14:

Thanks for the replies to an earlier post on my masks causing a sore nose.

I use ComfortLite headgear. I haven't been using it that long, so still pretty much getting used to it. I think what caused my nose to go sore was because I had the straps of the headgear too tight. That was causing the nose-part to push hard against the nostrils, causing it to be sore and inflamed. I've loosened things up a bit now and the pain has eased off. Still, there's major dryness happening, but I can handle that.
