I seemed to have the most problem with skin irritation caused by the various types of tape I used to secure the tube. Every tape I used caused irritation to the skin and I could only move the thing around to so many different positions from one day to another. Getting the thing yanked out was a day to remember. The pain was nearly unbearable but only lasted a minute or so.
