Research Notes on Cast Care
It is important to take proper care of a cast. Cast care involves simple steps such as keeping the cast clean and dry. Never stick anything inside a cast. Do not pull out the padding or trim rough edges. Contact your doctor if the cast becomes wet, damaged, or if you have any questions or concerns.1
