Prim Small Arm Cast Cover is an arm and hand protector designed to be worn while wearing a cast. This water resistant plastic protector helps protect the cast from moisture and dirt, which can help prevent infection and prolong the life of the cast.
It has been designed to be easy to put on and take off to allow the user to bathe or shower without difficulty. A secure fit has been implemented to prevent water from entering and damaging the cast. It is considered to be a strong and durable product to withstand daily wear and tear. In addition, it is comfortable to wear so that the user does not feel discomfort or skin irritation.
They can also be used during water activities, such as swimming or bathing in the sea or pool, to protect the cast or plaster from moisture and water.
When the plaster is not well protected or gets wet, it can weaken and break, which may require earlier replacement than expected. On the other hand, if the plaster is wet for a prolonged period of time, bacteria can grow, which can lead to skin infections such as dermatitis or cellulitis. It should also be considered that in these situations it may start to smell bad, which could cause discomfort for the user and the people around him/her.
