For many people managing sleep apnea, adjusting to the airflow from a CPAP machine can come with unexpected challenges. Understanding those discomforts is the first step to finding relief.
Here are a few common issues CPAP users experience:
1. Dry Skin & Irritation
The pressurized air can dry out your nasal passages and skin, especially without a heated humidifier.
2. Respiratory Discomfort
Airflow may stir up dust or allergens, which can make it harder to breathe easily at night—especially for those with sensitivities.
3. Temperature Fluctuations
CPAP air can feel too cold or too warm depending on your setup, impacting sleep quality.
4. Noise Stress
Even low noise levels from machines or masks can interrupt rest, particularly if you’re a light sleeper.
5. Fatigue & Headaches
If your CPAP setup isn’t optimized for comfort, it can lead to disrupted sleep, morning headaches, and lingering fatigue.
