first time caregiver here.. thanks for sharing this video
I had one for over two years. It was 21 inches long. Took me eight months to find a GI to change it to a button. I used to have granulation and pain. I think it’s ridiculous to have a tube dangling there. Can’t go swimming and laying flat is painful. Exercising was also limited. Now I can swim, exercise and lay flat with no problem.
Wow, I never thought it hurt. No wonder my mom took it off

I have to learn how to do this because my mother has a closed esophagus from cancer. I wanted to see it before the nurse demonstrates it. It's a big help. Thanks
She didn’t clean the area before putting the ointment.
Nurse Nickey
I was told to use body temperature fluids. Cold fluids shocks the stomach and slows down digestion.
true
I have a J Peg Feeding tube in my stomach. I've had mine now since February 7th of this year. I usually have 3 of the siranges ready with water in them to flush my feeding tube out.
This man is smart!
Since the tube is not clear, you can't see the debris accumulating on the inside. The nurses said to use gauze, but the written instructions said not to.
Very educational thank you!!
I wonder how is he now? My mum had the same problem
Yeah I was blown away at how simple and easy removing my tube. It took about 30 seconds if that.
Sounds like she said “ you want to stay dehydrated” 🤔
Wow very helpful
How this remove
Not as hard as I expected.

I hope he gets that stupid thing out nobody wants that stupid thing why is that even real
Can confirm it is indeed stupid dont ever get one of these you'll never hear somebody say they got more good than bad out of these. Even cleaning it feels like im being stabbed with the sharpest most biggest knife ever made
@@pluto9403honestly! Got it in September and I’m always in pain it’s ridiculous. I can’t walk, lay down or my stomach or even stretch. It hangs out my stomach and hurts
