Itchy nose /Constant mask toggling advice

Itchy nose /Constant mask toggling advice
First all I want to thank everyone on here who has replied to me. You are all so helpful. I’m still trying to get this right, seems new issues pop up all the time.

I used the dreamwear nasal mask, the cushion attachment  under my nose. I am finding it makes the sides of my nose itch, on the outside part of my nostril. I am CONSTANTLY , toggling it and adjusting it. This is all so frustrating!

Has anyone experienced this and what might be some good remedies to prevent this. 

Thanks so much

You might try pillows the head gear and frame are the same you just change from cradle to pillows. They are less than 20$ on Amazon. It does not touch yhe sides of the nose.

Hey, yeah i tried . For some reason one nostril worked and the other didn’t sit right.  Like the pillows didn’t align right into my nostril.
