What kind of mask are you wearing?
I find surgical masks incredibly frustrating after a short while as condensation and sweat start to build up (keep in mind this is usually in rooms much warmer than your average operating room)
N95 masks despite being bulkier end up being much much more comfortable. To the point that even a surgical mask stretched over an N95 with an exhaust feels better to me than just a surgical mask..
They're also easier to find now. Genuine 3M masks are going for pre-COVID prices at hardware stores and always in stock (don't go in planning to clear out shelves though: I'm pretty sure there are buy limits, and more importantly some people do require them for their work)
- eloff 5y agoIn parts of Europe, like Bavaria and Austria they are mandatory indoors. They cost about 0.5 Euro each and there are usually buy limits.

- BoorishBears 5y agoI'd try an N95 then, some of those crappy masks even absorb the moisture you exhale like a sponge
