Lansinoh---Does it Damage mask insert?
I really need to use the HPA Lansinoh inside my right nostril----nothing else does the job. My provider said not use it, might damage mask, and told me to get oxygen users cream (which didn't help, even irritated nostril further).
But I'm sure I have seen somewhere on this Forum (forgot where) people openly discussing using Lansinoh on their noses. Is Lansinoh OK?

It doesn't hurt the pillows. That's why it's recommended here so often. Your provider is wrong.

Based on what I've heard, it is safe to use, as Walla Walla said. Not sure why the provider said not to use it, but they are not correct on this.

OK, thought I had seen that it was not harmful.

I had not heard of it so I looked it up and all I fond here was a cream for breast feeding mothers?
Someone give me a link to it please.
