Re: Facial pain from Cpap mask?
No mask should cause pain or even discomfort. Masks adjusted too tightly are more prone to leak. A full face mask should "float" on the face when properly adjusted to the therapy air pressure. If the right mask and size is selected and properly adjusted, it should hardly be felt.snostorm wrote:woke up at 400AM this morning with some facial pain on the side of my nose and under my eye.

The possibilities are:
Wrong mask.
Wrong size.
Wrong adjustments.
Wrong bed pillow. (this one is probably a bigger problem than many users realize)
