It is possible sensitivity to the plastic cannula ( or chemicals used in making it) can cause skin irritation. Ask doc how mcs/iei can also cause dizziness or fainting

My mother always said that when she turned 50 her nose began to run. I experience much the same thing, and I end up doing the same thing. Eventually things dry up and I'm fine until I take it off.....then I go through the same thing. I chalk it up to being a function of how my nose responds to the cannula, an annoyance but not something to be concerned about. Just be sure you always have kleenex!

What are straight ones, maybe it help me, and where can I get them?, I’ll try just about everything as long as works and helps, do I get them from my oxygen supplier, thanks for that information, πŸ˜―πŸ€—
