Membrane Keyboards

Hello fellow lainers (lol). I am facing a big problem. I only have access to membrane keyboards, i got a new one recently and i really like it. However, the backspace key is unusually stiff on the edges of they key. Pressing down in the edges with my pinky takes a very uncomfortable amount of force. I opened the area below the key and it looks clean, i really need help with this as i write a lot. Enjoy the new place to discuss about membrane keyboards.
