[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 447416, member: 84"] Works fairly well with adults too, believe it or not. Removing the blockage should eliminate the infections. It always has for me. Not to mention any discomfort she's having from the blockage, and yeah there is discomfort with it.....more along the lines of pain. Be sure to keep the site of the drainage tube as clean as humanly possible. Ask the urologist for directions, not just the nurse. If it's a nephrostomy tube, which I'm thinking it is....infection is a serious threat. Should be ok if you are careful to keep the area clean and dry and avoid pulling on the tube. I say ask the urologist because in all honesty......the nurse may not know. I know you used to have to attempt to keep the area as sterile as possible, not sure if that is the case. My last nephrostomy tube was years back. Give lil Emily a kiss from me. She's such a cutie pie and a lil trooper. Hugs [/QUOTE]
