High pressure nasal irritation
High pressure nasal irritation
The nasal pillow works best for me because of mask issues. However the pressure really irritates my nasal passages.(BiPap In=16 Ex=12) If only the air was not as "sharp." I am on HH and it helps some. Is there something that won't cause congestion like a nasal spray or maybe a little bit of something to add to the HH like vapor or something? Just to condition air some?

Re: High pressure nasal irritation
Have you tried Ayr Saline Nasal Gel? I had to use it until my nasal passages "toughened up".

Re: High pressure nasal irritation
I've never been even close to that pressure - but FWIW:
When the air from my machine has the right warmth and humidity, it is no longer irritating.
I add those by using a heated hose, a heated humidifier and hose covers for both the main hose and the mask's narrower tube.
Saline nasal rinses http://www.neilmed.com also help.

And now here is my secret, a very simple secret; it is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye.

I am on bipap 18/15 and find the nose to be an outstanding regulator and only lets in what it needs.Zoot wrote:The nasal pillow works best for me because of mask issues.

I have no doubt, how I sleep affects every waking moment.
I am making progress-NOW I remember that I can't remember

If this isn’t rocket science why are there so many spaceshots?
