Burning irritation from head gear - Xltrod - 10-13-2022

I did a search and couldn’t find anything, so I ask what is going on, and how to stop it. I am getting a burning on the back of my neck from my head gear. It is only the neck , nothing anywhere else. I tried wrapping the area of the gear where it is affecting me and it is now doing it again. My machine is set at 20. I tried adjusting the mask the way a link that was sent to me suggested, buy the only way to have any kind of seal I have to have it cranked down super tight. I have a new brand ordered, Hopefully it will seal with less cranking. Both head gear are doing this both are Resmed. I have not used any rubs or chemicals on my gear or skin. Anyone else go through this.
