Straps on neck
I recently tried another mask/headgear system because of the tight straps on the sides of my neck, cutting some circulation and causing headaches, pain even numbness. I need to use full nose and mouth type so limited as straps all drop low on side of face to below ears and where the problem is. I read an article by John Hopkins U but no solution offered only than main arteries are being blocked to some degree. Any thoughts or solutions please.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble. I fought with my mask for the longest time. They are a pain. If you're still struggling, talk to your sleep provider about other mask options. I use a simple nose mask and that seems to work for me. Warmly, Brian (Team Member) Hi Jackie, I have a similar issue. My neck muscles get so tight I can't twist my neck. Normally I use the F20. When the strap gets older and looses it's elasticity in my sleep I leak and make it tighter. There are cushions you can add to the straps. (Find on Amazon) I also have the F&P Simplus. The Simplus has a much wider strap. Also available on Amazon
