Don’t Ignore These Warning Signs!
A tracheostomy tube can be life-saving—but complications can arise if not monitored carefully.
⚠️ Watch out for:
• Difficulty in breathing
• Excessive mucus buildup
• Bleeding around the tube
• Redness or irritation near the site
👉 These signs may indicate infection or blockage and need immediate medical attention.
👨⚕️ Early action can prevent serious complications and ensure safe recovery.
