Nose discomfort

Post by debidoo3123 » Wed Nov 14, 2007 12:48 pm

I am looking for a good nasal mask. The full mask I am currently using is causing a bump to form at the very top of my nose every day. I have tried washing it every night and wiped it down with alcohol. Nothing seems to work. So now I want a nasal mask. Any recomendations would be appreciated. Just please give me some options. Thanks

I have used the Swift II since day one, and aside from the fact that I have to tape it to my nose, and tape my mouth shut, I like it. It's comfortable enough that I OCCASIONALLY forget it's there.

Hello,
Haven't you read in mask's manual that it is highly not recommended to wipe it with alcohol, since alcohol makes your cushion harder? It destroys silicon layer of your mask.
TV and PC are my enemies. I'd rather walk for 30 min. than sit in front of TV/PC for 2 hours.
