Still itchy

Post by Larry C » Fri Jul 18, 2014 5:00 pm

In my fourth week of treatment and second week of full face. Nasal mask was allowing mouth breathing and had many leaks. Any way still being woken by itchy nose under mask. Sometimes so bad I'll take it off wipe down and put back on. This can't be good for quality sleep. It's not.
Any help please

Trim your nasal hairs down short, helped with my nose tickle and itch,if there any length they move around with the air blowing through your nose.

oh, yeah, sorry, I misread that as itching caused by the mask, not itchy nose...

yeah, I'm in the same boat, nose itches something fierce after a while, then I noticed once after trimming my nose hairs that my nose stopped itching under the FFM...

silicone is a serious allergy for some.

Try the face gaskets and some hydrocortisone during the day
