Hello Duchess,

Sorry for your brothers diagnosis and treatment complications.

Regarding the PEG tube irritation, in the US they have an ointment called Calmoseptine. (see https://oley.org/page/CalmingRashes )

It is a zinc oxide skin protectant with some soothing menthol I think. Has calamine, zinc oxide, lanolin I think and some other ingrediants.

A doctor prescribed some for me for another issue, but it worked great on my skin in a sensitive area.

I'd suggest he ask his doctors about that or something similar.

Best wishes for his recovery,
