My husband’s tube has pretty bad leaking, we change gauze like twice for each feed, is that normal? Granulation kept forming around the site, his doc treated it was silver nitrate, and removal extra skin, it kept coming back.

His medical oncologist placed g tube for him, but should a GI doc do that?
