Orthopedic Cast Discomfort - Frequently Asked Questions

Orthopedic Cast Discomfort: Wearing an orthopedic cast has long been associated with Cast Discomfort. An uncomfortable cast is unpleasant at best and Cast Discomfort can be objectionable. An uncomfortable cast is caused by the bacterium that is growing in the lining of your cast. While a stinky cast is difficult to eliminate, cast discomfortcast does not need to be tolerated.
What Causes Cast Discomfort?: This moist lining is a primary cause of cast discomfortcast, as that moisture causes rapid and continued growth of bacteria. The CastCooler may be used to reduce a uncomfortable cast by eliminating the moisture in the lining of your cast, the primary cause of Cast Discomfort. Use the CastCooler daily or whenever necessary to significantly reduce Cast Discomfort.
What Can be Done about Cast Discomfort?: Assuming your cast has a typically cotton or synthetic lining (as opposed to a washable cast lining), you should attempt to keep you cast and lining dry at all times. This is an effective means of eliminating a uncomfortable cast. If the cast lining becomes wet, a stinky cast will increase. The CastCooler can be used as needed to reduce Cast Discomfort by removing the moisture from the lining of the cast. The CastCooler removes the moisture from the lining of your cast. Without moisture, bacteria growth is reduced as well as Cast Discomfort. You should not attempt to reduce a uncomfortable cast by applying treatments to the cast, the lining or the skin.
What Should I do if Cast Discomfort Persists?: If Cast Discomfort is acute, see your doctor. You may have an infection or a skin condition known as maceration. Skin maceration occurs when the skin is continually wet or moist. One sign of skin infection or skin maceration can be acute Cast Discomfort. Both of these conditions can be serious and if you experience acute Cast Discomfort, you should contact your doctor immediately.
