Some sites claim that peroxide use increases granulation tissue so I quit using that. I do use antibiotic cream on the Peg site sometimes. Although despite tea tree oil, in the end, I have to use silver nitrate sticks to burn off the granulation tissue. In over three years, I have never had an infection of the stoma or PEG. BTW, I love the smell of garlic Charm 65 yr Old Frack Stage IV BOT T3N2M0 HPV 16+ 2007:72GY IMRT(40) 8 ERBITUX No PEG 2008:CANCER BACK Salvage Surgery 25GY-CyberKnife(5) 3 Carboplatin Apaghia /G button 2012: CANCER BACK -left tonsilar fossa 40GY-CyberKnife(5) 3 Carboplatin Passed away 4-29-13
