You don't mention what mask your using, but most masks will leave some irritation on your face or nose. Thats why I switched to the nasal aire. I have to admit that after 3 months, I am very happy with this new technology and very thankful that I never have to skip early morning meetings (because of mask marks untill 11 am) or endure sores on my face again... Now, if only I could lose, say, 80 lbs, life would be perfect.
