How to Dress Up Your Cast or Boot From Drab to Fab

We get it, casts can clash (and sometimes trash) your clothing. 

Owner and founder of CastCoverz! Annette de Lancey started creating cast covers over a decade ago to not only stop the snagging and the scratches but also give casts, braces, splints, crutches, and walking boots fashion, function, and FUN! 

One of our customers, YouTuber “Heart Style”, who creates fun fashion and unboxing YouTube videos, did an amazing job showing how you can dress up your cast to match your sense of style. Our 24 Karat Armz! is featured in her YouTube video (5:32) styled with a beautiful pink dress. Watch the video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLc3DF6EKH4

Accidents happen to everyone, even the fashionistas out there. 

We want you to feel better, so you heal better, and look good while you’re doing it!

You-Have-More-Time-Than-You-Think-(To-Get-Surgery-on-Your-Injury)

You Have More Time Than You Think (To Get Surgery on Your Injury)

In this Facebook Live: All Things Orthopedic , Annette de Lancey (Founder and Owner of CastCoverz!) speaks with Dr. Scott Hoffinger, Medical Director of OrthoPediatrics, and Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon, about the overwhelming and stressful waiting period before and after surgery, and shares tips for understanding this process and how to best advocate for your health.  

If you’re worried about not getting into the OR (operating room) early enough to fix your injury, you have more time than you think! 

Standard fractures do not always require emergency surgery. 

Dr. Hoffinger said in the interview: “If it’s broken today, it’s broken tomorrow.”

You have more time than you realize; take your time making these big decisions.

You could see another doctor in a day or two, and if surgery is required it is likely not going to be done on the same day that you come in for the fracture. There’s not much you can do during this time before your surgery is scheduled; pain management, cold or warm compresses as directed, lots of sleep, and binge-watching your favorite program are your best options to make the time go by as quickly as it can before you can get into surgery. 

If scheduling seems urgent; ask why. If not, no need to worry; your doctor knows what he/she is doing and will squeeze you to make sure they can operate on your injury in a timely manner.
