Do you have allergies. You might be allergic to something in the tubings.
I have both. I do know when I have a flare up it is because I ate something I am allergic to or I’m coming down with something.
CPAP mask is only over my nose and they have many styles.
So my mouth isn’t covered.
I wish you the best figuring it out.

I’ e been thinking I too am having trouble. My mask is not right. I guess I have a small head and I wear a mask for dry eyes at night.
When the mask hone power increases it is too much and my mask leaks. Then it sounds like a major storm is going on. I have a hold the mask in place. I have tried a number of mask and is going to change again.
Itching. I was told that is common. The itching stops after a few minutes.
I guess the old saying holds true. It’s man make.
You are not alone.

I don’t know of any allergies, but I’ve certainly not ruled that out. My mask is only over my nose. I wouldn’t be surprised to find my machine has been keeping the OLP inflamed. I plan on looking into a new one this week! Thanks for your reply.
