Re: F20 Hydroplaning off your face at a 15 IP

... anyway after beating around the bush, The PA in my ENT / sleep apnea doctors office, said to me if you're having trouble with your mass try some Vaseline on the silicone.

Redness under nose

... cleaning all my equipment, cranked up the humidity and tried every cream under the sun. Tried antifungal, antibiotic cream, diaper rash cream, vaseline etc. One website said that high pressure air could cause it but my highest pressure is set at 9 so I don't think that's it. Hoping someone ...

angular cheilitis And CPAP

... an antifungal cream that I would put on it when it would develop, and that works. As a preventative measure, I used to use and still do dab of Vaseline at the corners of my mouth before bed to make a barrier.

ResMed AirTouch F20

After using it for a few hours my nose itches so much that it wakes me and I cannot continue sleeping with it on. I don't want to use Vaseline or cream because I'm afraid it will ruin the spongy rim.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Any suggestions as to how to deal with the itches?
