Itchy Nose

When I wear the cpap, my nose itches. I am constantly waking up during the night to lift the mask and scratch my nose. My cpap has a humidifer so I know the problem is not from dryness. I also have this problem anytime I have dental work done. My nose itches throughout the whole time. Help.

My nose was quite itchy when I first started using the CPAP -- but not while I was wearing it. When I woke up, during the day, etc. I would have sneezing fits that drove me crazy. No problems now. Usually, that kind of reaction is caused by some kind of irritation to the vagus nerve. Sorry I can't be of more help. Donna
