A tracheostomy site typically takes about 7 to 14 days to heal sufficiently after the tube is removed, but complete closure may take longer, often around 2 to 4 weeks. Factors such as the individual's overall health, presence of infection, and adherence to care protocols can influence healing time. It's important to monitor the site for any signs of complications during the healing process. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
