Intubation pain...

hollyfaith76Member

I am six weeks post op today and I am having pain inside when I incubate. Like just before the tube is in far enough to cover the holes, I hit a spot in the valve or somewhere, it is painful. Anyone else have this happen? Please say yes, I don't want anything wrong!

Yes I had pain. I hated intubating at first. If you think there is damage from inserting you can put a foley and leave on drainage or plug it up in for 24-48 hours to give it a break. My stoma also has a spot that hurts, I think I cut it awhile back and it just stays tender.

Another thing that helps is Lidocane, your doctor can call a script in and use it instead of lubrication.
