An Itching Orthopedic Cast - Frequently Asked Questions

An Itchy Orthopedic Cast
Wearing an orthopedic cast has long been associated with an itching cast. An itching cast is unpleasant at best and an itching cast can be objectionable. An itching cast is caused by the bacterium that is growing in the lining of your cast. While a stinky cast is difficult to eliminate, an itching cast does not need to be tolerated.
What Causes an Itching Cast?
This moist lining is a primary cause of an itching cast, as that moisture causes rapid and continued growth of bacteria. The CastCooler may be used to reduce a itching cast by eliminating the moisture in the lining of your cast, the primary cause of an itching cast. Use the CastCooler daily or whenever necessary to significantly reduce an itching cast.
What Can be Done about an Itching Cast?
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 itching cast. If the cast lining becomes wet, a stinky cast will increase. The CastCooler can be used as needed to reduce an itching cast 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 an itching cast. You should not attempt to reduce a itching cast by applying treatments to the cast, the lining or the skin.
What Should I do if an itching cast Persists?
If an itching cast 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 an itching cast. Both of these conditions can be serious and if you experience acute an itching cast, you should contact your doctor immediately.
