So, Mr. Clark, you'll need to keep the cast dry,
which means covering it with a plastic bag when taking a shower.
I'm sure you'll manage.
If the cast does get wet, I can use a hairdryer, can't I?
Yes, put it on a cool setting, though.
One other thing, it's easy to forget to exercise the shoulder and the elbow.
Don't sit all day like a statue.
Right.
And it's not normal to feel any tingling or numbness.
It's unlikely to happen, but inform us as soon as possible if it does.
After a day or two, some people can start to feel the cast is too tight or too loose.
Again, if that's an issue, you should let us know.
Okay, so you can adjust it?
Actually, we can replace the cast if there's any discomfort.
