What should you do if you get your cast wet?
well i never had a cast so cant tell details that's is why you put bubble wrap around it if you got it wet now you know what to do. when it gets wet deal with the pain.
*I recently got my cast off after having it been wet from the bath and it was fine because I followed a few simple steps I looked up.
1. Try and dry with a towel or cloth as much of the wetness as you can
2. Get a hairdryer and set it to cool. You'll want to blow this down your cast to dry the soft material on the inside which is prone to infection (being so sweaty and moist)
3. If it doesn't seem to be drying consult your local doctor as they may have some advice, in some cases it may just be down to you going down to the hospital and getting your cast refitted.
The only real worry is the smell which will probably get quite bad if you just leave it as infection is quite rare but CAN still happen.
**I've gotten a total of six surgeries, and after each one I needed a cast. I've accidentally gotten four of them wet. My doctors at Children's Hospital Boston told me that no matter how small, if the wetness doesn't go away in an hour and you feel like a soggy sneaker to go back to your hospital and get a new cast. I've only had small incisions(up until currently), but they can easily get infected if your cast is wet. Especially if you've had it on for a while and it's already starting to get dirty and gross.
The tree steps above work well, but I suggest no matter what consulting your doctor's office and see what they want you to do. Different injuries call for different measures. I can tell you that if you've had a surgery they'll want your cast to be refitted.
