OUCH! My forehead hurts!

Post by Suserbec » Wed Nov 10, 2004 9:25 pm

I got the Ultra Mirage full face mask last week and have been using it for about a week now. My forehead hurts really bad from the piece that goes across it. I have to have the adjustment on the top notch in order to prevent leakage around my chin. Is this something that will go away? It's like a constant headache, soreness and throbbing, as well as tender to the touch.

The mask should not have to be tight to seal properly if the mask is fitted properly. You may need a different style mask. I've heard the FP 431 is very nice . I just ordered 1 so I'll let you know in a few weeks . Pain should not be part of your therapy ! Try it at different adjustments and let the mask seal do the work. Good luck. Chris

I would be very interested in your opinions of this mask after you try it. I have been looking at it for my nest mask as well.

Can you give me a website where I can view the FP 431?
