Just Curious About Itching!

This might sound like a stupid question, but for those who use a full face mask, do you notice that your nose and face does not itch until you get the mask in place?

For some crazy reason after I get the mask on and sealed, within minutes my nose, my cheek and everything under the mask starts to itch!!!

Once I get settled and under the covers I hate having to move and slide a finger under my mask to itch my face and break the seal. Maybe I am the only crazy one in this fourm, but hey, if you got an itch you have to scratch!

Hahhh, I've also noticed nearly the same problems as you. I'm new to using xPAP but it do notice than when I put on my mask, My nose just seems to itch as soon as I lay down. A couple times of scratching usually takes care of it. Go figure!

Hang in there, Jerry
