Anyone with red marks from their cpap mask needs to look into a new mask! It should not have to be so tight that it puts marks on the face. There are hundreds of masks out there to choose from. Find a good home healthcare provider who will let you try as many masks as you want. Don't settle with one that's uncomfortable! Having the wrong mask could disrupt your sleep as much as the osa that got you there.
