Got a Cast? Here’s How to Keep It in Good Shape

A simple reminder that can make a big difference. If it gets wet, call your provider for instructions instead of trying to dry it with heat (which can cause burns). And never insert objects to scratch inside the cast—use a hair dryer on the cool setting if itching becomes uncomfortable.

The better you care for your cast, the smoother your recovery.
