Answer to Question 2

D
Apply a topical antibacterial solution and allow it to dry. Increase the frequency of tracheostomy care. Apply a hydrocolloid or transparent dressing just under the stoma to protect the skin from breakdown. Consult with a skin care specialist. Adjust the ties or apply new ones when the ties are loose or tight. Never remove the ties.
