Help

Post by Bigsleepy » Thu Dec 27, 2007 4:01 pm

Ok my CPAP keeps making these deep lines under my eyes and makes me red under my nose and between my eyes. Anything I can do to not have these lines under the eyes? Im 30 so im not old, but my CPAP stuffs my face foward and puts em in my face. And why am I getting red on the nose and between the eyes.

Thanks

It would help if you fill out your profile so we new what equipment you have, but it sound like your mask is to tight.

Sounds as though you may have your mask cinched too tight. Have you tried loosing it up a tad and see if that helps? Padacheeks as Babs said are great as well so that when you have the proper fit the straps can still leave marks and with Padacheeks no lines!!!
