If you need to be in a rigid cast and need it to be waterproof, then the new dry liner and wool below the plaster are used to get completely wet and dry quickly. Great for pools, showers, baths and holidays!

In the early stages of an injury this is a partial cast or ‘backstab’ to allow for increasing swelling, but after the first week or so the swelling goes down and we can place a full complete cast which holds the fracture more rigidly. For full casts the plaster of Paris casts are always white and are better for moulding around a displaced fracture, and the coloured synthetic casts are stronger and lighter for fractures that are already in a good position. We sometimes use a hybrid of plaster and synthetic to get the optimal properties from both materials.

We stock all types of kit to support all limb injuries, from upper arm braces, wrist and thumb splints, knee braces, ankle braces, moon boots and weight offloading shoes.
