CPAP Question?

I washed my cpap mask and humidifier tub in the dishwasher and for the past two days I have had an awful sore throat can it be because of dis washer liquid residue?

So I should wash it again to try to remove the residue? I hope it works I am tired of waking up with a sore throat.

yes, it can be, I never put mine in the dishwasher, I soak it in a weak bleach solution and let it air dry.
