in the hole
"You're breathing through a tube in a hole in your throat. "
What does" in a hole" mean here?
Wouldn't the sentence be clear without the part?
I assume this is describing the surgical procedure known a tracheostomy, which involves cutting a hole in the throat and inserting tube into it. Reference to this extra hole is important in describing and understanding the procedure.
