I had a PEG tube inserted a couple of weeks ago and had some irritation around the site, Im on antibiotics for a few days now, I'm still sore deep in my stomach and back, I think from coughing. Has anyone else had this issue? I got a tube with the balloon and had some stitches that stayed in for 2 weeks, I believe that caused the irritation on the skin. The tube is working fine although I can still eat and drink on my own. We flush every day but it is weird that food that I eat comes up into the tube (mac and cheese turned the tube yellow)
