Hi all, i had my Jejunostomy tube removed after a very long time. It has been around a year since its removal and i am now getting a burning sensation where the tube was taken out , it feels quite deep ! and seems to be happening more frequently

i am wondering if anybody else has experienced this?

Mine was in for about a year I had this it heals up quickly but it probably is nerve endings. Unless anything is oozing out or it gets worse I would say it is quite normal.

Best wishes

Debbie
