If you had broken your leg and your foot was itching how could you scratch it when you have a cast on?
Just interested to what you would do.....

I'd send down my pet spider to scratch the itch and also eat all the dead skin cells that collect after a while - yum!


superobotz
Well, actually you wouldn't be able to.


adige_85
you can use antihistaminic and antıallergıc tablets ıt was been too relax to you


chickynikki
I used to use an old toothbrush.
Good luck with the healing!

there isn't much you can do, except try everything in the book, i used a wire coat hanger to reach that foot, it worked great, um.. but if its itching, it means its healing, so that's a good sign

The traditional way of scratching under a plaster cast is to use a knitting needle.

I was going to say knitting needle...but hopefully my darling partner would do it for me...love has no boundaries !!

a wire hanger break it and then bend it.just stick it in the cast and relief

Not anything with a sharp point - if you scratch or cut the skin it would be unbearable inside the cast !!! The ideal thing is a chop stick xx

with a long piece of wire

put something that wont get stuck and that wont break into pieces up the cast to scratch oneself.


Ballyskenachgirl
Stick a ruler down or a knitting needle if it fits

when I broke my leg, I had a thin knitting needle I used to poke around inside the cast to sort out itches.

It wasnt brilliant, but it helped a bit.


Sexy Red
Right forget all what these people have said.You do not stick nothing at all down your cast especially knitting needles,this will scratch the skin,the skin will break and cause serious infections without you knowing,ive seen it and its aint nice,then there put on to anti-biotics for 7 days to treat the infection.I tell patients if they have a itch to tap the area with a spoon this normally helps.If not come bck to the plaster roon and get the cast changed.Some times people are allergic to the stockinette and cotton wool we use so we have to apply another brand for sensative skin.

Try a pencil eraser.
