Unexplained phenomenom: "shakes, bumps, burts..." in my mask

Post by Albatros » Mon Jan 22, 2024 5:15 am

I have been using a facial mask successfully for about a year.
Face mask because of the “mouth breathing” effect with another type of mask, even with a tape on the mouth.
That said, even with a face mask, I continue to use a tape, otherwise, at the end of the night I have saliva which compromises the seal of my mask.
Furthermore, I seem to be winning the battle of the "tongue stuck to the palais of my mouth" in order to try to avoid putting a tape.

But it's at this moment that I have an unexplained phenomenon: at the end of the night, I have "bumps, bursts, shakes...", in the mask, especially when my tongue is stuck to the roof of my mouth, and it keeps me awake.

Any chance your mask seal or straps are simply worn out?
