The DK2 & My Watery Eyes

All of this may sound strange but I got my DK2 about 6 months ago and I haven't been able to really enjoy due to one massive issue: the DK2 puts pressure on my massive nose and not only does it hurt but my eyes water (I think) due to the pressure. I was curious if anyone else has encountered the same problem as me or if anyone has any suggestions on what I could do to help this problem; I'd really like to be able to enjoy this machine but simply can't because of this issue, any help is graciously appreciated.

    Have you tried adjusting the straps yet (silly, I know)?

    For example, if you tighten the top strap it will move the headset up a little and should give more space for your nose.

    I did try adjusting the straps around and I also used the cloth that came with the Oculus to cover the top of my nose from the pressure of the rift. It helped take away the pain a bit but after about a minute or so, my eyes start watering again.
