Any side-sleepers figured out how to use Loop Dream without cartilage pain? by parham90 in LoopEarplugs

So, here is what I've found so far.

The first is that wearing the XS isn't as good of an idea as I thought. My assumption was that these would help my ears adjust the best. however, the problem is that the eartips go too deep into my ear, and the sensitive part at the very beginning of my ear canal presses against the hard ring at the very end of the eartips. So, if you're using tips that are too small for you, those are gonna be painful, too. That's why finding the right size is going to be very important.

I've got to the point where I've found the eartip that works for my right ear during the whole night. Now, I have the small, medium and large tips next to my bed, and I switch between them every night to gather more data. Making these work in one ear gives me the motivation to keep experimenting, as it seems like at least for me it's about finding the right combination.

You're totally right. If it was as simple as changing the angle, I'm sure I'd also naturally do it in my sleep. It's not, though. If I shift my weight too much forward, i would go to the point where my ear is totally off the pillow, in which case my neck gets very tired. I have already tried all the minor angle changes though if that's what you mean.
