Re: feeding tube infection

Matt had had granulomas (granulation tissue) many times. His is always around the stoma site and looks red and raised, almost like a growth. The doctor has always treated it with silver nitrate. From what I have been told, some kids get it more than others. The silver nitrate makes it go away for almost instantly. Good luck. Jill, Matts mom, scad

Geri-Ann,

had this too. It sounds like granulation tissue. They gave

us silver nitrate sticks and I did this forever. I finally called

them and said it just keeps growing back.Help! They gave us a

steroid cr. and it was gone in a week and never came back. Try the

cream if they will give it to you.
