#Leg Cast Safety Precautions

Update! We’re in a cast and a brace. My tibia is broken and so is my ankle but HEY I’m alive to tell it! Happy birthday week I guess! No but seriously, thank you guys for reaching out and praying for me. We got a long road ahead but God is good and I am so lucky to even be here to make light of this situation. I love each and everyone of you- please, I beg, be safe out there ❤️ #runningsafety #explore

What’s your pick?? I think there’s also PINK and PURPLE. Should I let people sign it? “Let the good times roll, let them knock you around ..” - The Cars @wash_ortho @mossd02 @egmagur #cast #surgery #crutches #invalid #colorchoices

Where I work, we see mostly kids so we usually cast in open chain/non-weightbearing so we can manipulate (aka wrangle) the leg and foot. But sometimes, these older, bigger kids' lower extremities overpower my little noodle arms. I had to do things a little differently with my casting technique, like casting semi-weightbearing, so I could use his body weight and gravity (and Nicholas's help) in my favour to achieve a neutral alignment. How do you usually cast? Any tips and tricks?? (Other than go to the gym more 💪🏻) #orthotics #afo #brace #orthosis #orthoses #orthotist #custom #healthcare

Apparently the vacuum can create enough suction to allow air flow. This has worked like magic because if you’ve ever had a kid in a cast, you know the itch is half the battle. And Western medicine has a time and place, like when this type of thing happens but it’s just not usually our go-to to unless its absolutely necessary.

Quick Podiatry Tips – Part 3 🦶❄️ In a cast or splint and icing isn’t helping? Here’s a trick 👇 Instead of only icing the foot, try placing the ice behind your knee. Why? The major blood vessels that supply your foot run behind the knee. Cooling that area helps cool the blood as it travels down into the foot — which can improve pain relief when a cast or splint blocks direct icing. ⚠️ Important reminder: Do NOT ice longer than 10–20 minutes per hour to avoid skin injury. Save this for later or share with someone in a cast! #anklesprain #brokenankle #cast #footsurgery #anklesurgery

This Magical plaster let's you walk immediately after fracture Hi Friends I never imagined that there could be so much advancement in technology where one could walk on a fractured foot immediately or remove the cast and take a shower. But here is a video on my removable cast that I have to wear for 3 months for recovery from my fracture. This is by a company called VACOpedes which is Germany based. You can check it online and help anyone out in this situation. Love Garima
