How do you create a cast for your arm??


Answers: using 1 inch wide gauze strips about 12 inches long and a ace bandage. Not overly tight wrap the arm with an ace bandage, next soak the gauze strips in a plaster of paris mixture available at most hobby stores slowly and tightly begin the process of wrapping the ace bandage with the gauze strips. Let set to completely dry. This takes a while and the cast should be about 1 inch thick including the ace bandage and gauze strips.
go to the hospital and have them do it for you
****gasp*****!!! DO NOT MAKE A HOMEMADE CAST. especially when ur arm is broken.

but just for curiousity, you have this metal thing that's supposed to keep the broken bone straight. then you wrap around the metal and your arm with sticky cloth. and then put it up in a sling to keep the circulation flowing and the bone straight. i guess.
if u have NO COMON SENSE...go ahead...make it outa paper mache
G O/ T O/ A/ H O S P I T E L/.....is that clear enough?
go to the hostpital it isn't really good for someone to make a home-made cast it wont heal as good as if a proffesional did it!!
