To remove a cast, the doctor typically uses a specialized cast saw designed to cut through the plaster or fiberglass without harming the skin underneath. The saw has a vibrating blade that is safe against soft tissue. Once the cast is cut, the doctor carefully pries it apart, often using spreaders or pliers, and may apply a skin-safe lotion to soothe any irritation. After removal, the doctor will inspect the area for healing and discuss any necessary follow-up care.
