The breathing tube that you refer to is called an ET tube (endotracheal tube).  Only experienced medical professionals can intubate someone, or as you say, put a breathing tube in someone.  Maybe you are thinking of some other procedure the doctor performed on your girlfriend. If your girlfriend is truly having trouble breathing then you need to call 9-1-1.

Lay on your left side. Now press yourself up onto your left elbow keeping the elbow in line with the shoulder. Place your right hand by your right ear. Widen your feet so your right leg is a little bit infront of you left leg. Pick up your hips keeping the body is a straight line. Exhale as you twist the right elbow towards the floor while sucking the belly button into the spine. Inhale and untwist. Repeat 12-15 times and switch sides.

I would use gas to remove it from adults but I dont reccommend doing that for a little baby , the best thing to do is to contact a health center .

place the mouthpiece in boiling water for at least one minute (some require longer, but that's the general rule) take it out and immediately bite down hard into it, making sure that it contours and shapes to your teeth and gums.\n\n you can reboil it, but I don't reccommend doing it because it can weaken the mouthpiece's ability to absorb the shock of a strike. there is also one that is a full mouthpiece that protects the top and bottom teeth and the Jaw from strikes called the WIPPS jaw joint protector. ($19.99 @ awma.com)\n\nif you feel like you're choking, you may need to trim the back ends of the mouthpiece to fit better.

I always start by eating and drinking something that has vapors. Things like tea, and chicken noodle soup. Also a hot shower to unclog your lungs. Then take a swig of DayQuil and I'm usually good to go.

Get the victim out of the water if you can do so safely. \nMonitor for breathing and pulse. If no breathing and no pulse, do CPR. If no breathing, but there is a pulse, do rescue breathing.If victim is breathing and has a pulse, put him or her in the recovery position. This position keeps the airway clear and allows swallowed water or vomit to drain. \nTake cold, wet clothes off the victim and cover him or her with something warm to prevent hypothermia.Get Emergency Care and give first aid before emergency care:

If a person is choking then let them continue to choke (or cough) until the object dislodges.  If they stop breathing then administer the Heimlich Maneuver.  Stand behind the person.  Make a fist with your right hand and place just below the sternum.  Cover your fist with your left hand.  Now make an inward and up thrusting motion repeatedly until the object has dislodged itself.  The object has a tendency of shooting out of the mouth so be prepared.

Folk\nAnise seed (for infants) Pour a cupful of boiling water over a teaspoonful of anise seeds; steep; give the baby one or two teaspoonsful. It often cures immediately. Nursing the baby will frequently stop the hiccups, too.\n\nApple cider vinegar Slowly sip a glass of warm water mixed with one teaspoon of vinegar. Works better when the water is drunk from the far side of the glass.\n\nBaking soda (bicarbonate of soda) Mix two teaspoonsful of baking soda, two teaspoonsful of aromatic spirits of ammonia with four ounces of peppermint water. Dose: one tablespoonful; repeat if necessary.\n\nBreathing Breathe into a small paper bag that is tightly pressed around your mouth. Or try spreading your arms out like a "T" and take a very deep breath. Repeat several times. Or try taking a deep breath and holding it as long as you can.\n\nChamomile Put 1 drop of chamomile essential oil in a brown paper bag; hold bag over nose and mouth; breathe in and out slowly and deeply through the nose.\n\nCamphor Mix three drops of spirits of Camphor in half a glassful of water and drink.\n\nCollar bones Put strong pressure on the collar bones.\n\nHoney Take a teaspoon of honey.\n\nIce  Eat or suck on a piece of ice. \n\nLemon Mix the juice of one lemon in half a glass of water; drink; repeat if the first drink didn't stop the hiccups.\n\nLemon/salt Put a teaspoonful of salt on half a lemon and then suck the juice out of the lemon.\n\nLemon/bitters Eat a slice of lemon which has been soaked in angostura bitters.\n\nOrange Drink the juice from 1/2 an orange.\n\nPeanut butter Eat 1 teaspoon of peanut butter.\n\nPepper, red Pour a half pint of boiling water over a quarter of a red pepper; steep; drink a wineglassful. If no red pepper is available, use five drops of tincture of Capsicum in a tablespoonful of water.\n\nPineapple juice Take a few rapid swallows of canned pineapple juice. Repeat hourly if necessary.\n\nSugar Cure hiccups by placing a teaspoon of sugar on the tongue and washing it down with a glass of cold water. Another sugar remedy suggests swallowing it dry.\n\nSugar/lemon Soak a cube of sugar in fresh lemon juice and let it dissolve in your mouth.\n\nTartar, cream of Add 1/3 teaspoon  of cream of tartar to 8 oz. of warm water; drink 2 tablespoons at a time on an empty stomach.\n\nWater Drinking water in various fashions has been an age-old cure. Here are several variations. Plug your ears and drink a glass of ice cold water; or slowly sip a cup of warm water; sip a cup of warm water with honey in it. For infants:  hiccups usually disappear in 5-10 minutes. If hiccups do not disappear, give the baby a bottle of sugar water. Mix one-quarter teaspoon of sugar with four ounces of water.\n\nPlay "hear no evil." Some doctors recommend that you put your fingers in your ears - and not because they don't want you to hear yourself hiccop. It seems that branches of the vagus nerve also reach into the suditory system, and by stimulating the nerver endings there, the vagus nerve goes into action. Of course, other doctors insist that you should never put anything smaller than you elbow in you ear in order to avoid irritating or damaging the ear canal. So if you do decide to try this hiccup reliever, be gentle, and don't stick your fingers too far into your ears.

NOt a great idea,a there is a balloon attached inside, so pulling it out without deflating could be harmful.  \n\nAre finished with the tube, want a new one, can you eat without it?\n\nActually, the 800 nurse or nurse on call will probably walk you through it.  Removing the tube is not especially hard to do, you do not want to invite infection though, that is a concern.  It needs to be as clean as clean can be, you could faint, so it is best to have someone there.  It is a strange sensation. I am assuming it is a PEG tube.\n\nHere is one guy's story of peg removal:\n\nMember # 4 \n\n \n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nRemoving the peg takes about 30 seconds; I actually removed my own since I was in Santa Fe, a long ways from MDACC. Some like mine have a little thin wire in them that causes the other end to "pigtail" up once they have put it in. Cut that little wire and the tube inside straightens out and you just pull it out. A 2X2 gauze and a piece of tape for one day covered things up, and that was it. No leaks, no fuss, no muss. Other types have a small, inflated balloon at the end that keeps them in. Deflate the balloon and the tube comes right out. While I am not advocating that you take your own out, I mention all this to illustrate that it is no big deal. I had mine in for about 8 months after the completion of all the treatments... it was that long before I was able to get enough nutrition through my trashed mouth and throat. I'm glad to hear that your mouth hasn't developed mucositis yet, but in my case it really didn't show up until about the third week. Also, many get a longer course of radiation than 4 weeks, and with your short schedule, you may not have as many of the side effects that you read about from others here. Let’s hope that is the case.  \n\nHere is more: \nTube Feeding \n\nWhen surgery or treatment for oral cancer affects the patient's ability to eat, a feeding tube is inserted to facilitate meeting nutritional needs. First introduced in 1980, today more than 200,000 patients every year receive this form of therapy. The location of oral cancers, and the resulting damage to the oral / esophageal tissues from treatments, makes weight maintenance and obtaining proper nutrition especially difficult.  \n \n\nFeeding tubes may be inserted through the nasal passageway for short-term use, but for those patients who require longer use of the tube, it is customary to place the tube directly into the stomach through the abdominal wall. This second method is called a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube. The feeding tube may also be put in place in anticipation of other treatments such as radiation or chemotherapy, allowing the patient to adapt to its use prior to treatments. Feeding tubes are not painful and are not easily visible when wearing normal clothes. When not in use, they can simple be taped to the patients stomach to prevent them from moving around under clothing. \n\nPEG tubes are placed with the aid of an endoscope, the scope going down the throat to assist in guiding the placement of the tube through the wall of the stomach. The surgery is simple and involves little risk or discomfort. The procedure takes about 20 minutes. The PEG tube extends from the interior of the stomach to outside the body through a small incision only slightly larger than the tube itself in the abdominal wall. The tube is prevented from coming out of the stomach by one of several methods. Some brands have a small wire within the tube, which after insertion is pulled from the exterior end of the tubing causing the portion within the stomach to curl up or “pigtail,” preventing it from being pulled out. Other systems employ a very small balloon at the end of the tube which is inflated within the stomach after insertion, serving the same purpose. Removal of the tube simple involves cutting the wire which created the pigtail, or deflating

try using a little ambesol or oragel to numb the area then yank that baby out. Do it fast like a band-aid

like a Motorola SLVR (Sliver)?\n\nJk...take a needle like the ones you use for sewing and stick in the stove flame for a few minutes to kill all the germs on it.\n\nThen use it to go layer by layer into your skin until you reach the thing. Then just do watever it takes it to get it out.\n\nIt might be painful but its worth it.

You need a container that you can fill with water and put upside down into a bigger container with some water in(eg a 2-gallon catering container for ketchup or etc, upside down in a half-filled bath). You also need a length of tubing that can reach from outside the bath, to inside the upside-down container.\n\nBy taking a really deep breath, and then breathing out (into the pipe) as much as you can, you can replace some of the water with air that used to be in your lungs. As soon as you've finished blowing, put your thumb over the pipe to stop any of the air coming back out.\n\nWhile the container is still upside down and underwater, put the cap back on it. You can then take it out of the bath and either weigh it, or pour out the water still in it into a measuring jug.\n\nThe difference between its total capacity, and the amount still in it, is the same as the amount of air you breathed out.\n\nThis amount is NOT actually your total lung capacity; it's called the 'tidal volume', because you breathe it in and out like a tide. There's some air you can't breathe out, no matter how hard you try (your lungs are never totally flattened out, unless you died in an elephant avalanche). This remaining air is called the 'residual volume', and it's usually about half of what you can measure, ie a third of the total.
