Cannula Hose Kinking

Does anyone have suggestion on how to stop my 25ft hose from kinking. Is there any kind hose you can buy that won’t kink?

  1. Hi victorino545 - thanks so much for asking! While you may get feedback from community members on personal experience about particular hoses, I thought you might find this article helpful about this exact topic: https://copd.net/living/tangled-oxygen-line/. I do hope this is helpful. Also, yours is a question we've heard before, so you're not the only one having this experience! - Jenn (COPD.net Team)
