a normal intubation tube is put down ur throat while ur asleep but when ur awake, most of them nowadays can be taken out by the patient once they are awake as it is their natural instinct to do so!. just be aware that u may have a sore throat after and there may be a lot of spit as well!. hope this helps, i have surgical experience as a student nurse and seen many people be anesthatised!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I go to the hospital at least once a year for a heart check up, since I was born with a defected heart, which causes me to continue to get Pneumonia a lot!. I've had to get a breathing tube jammed down my throat, and yes it hurts, and no I didn't push it away!. They usually knock you out first with a sleeping shot!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If you wake up from surgery or something similar with a tube down yout throat, then It's instinct to try and get it out!. Once the nurse/doctor has explained to you and calmmed you down, you can't feel it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If somebody needs a breathing tube, chances are they will be sedated and unaware of it (such as when under general anaesthetic or in intensive care)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
