Broken cast??

Dd broke her elbow just over a week ago. Tonight I noticed her cast has broken at the top of her arm and is loose there. She still can't straighten or twist her arm. I called the number on the leaflet we were given (a&e ) and was put through to the resus room (????) person I spoke to just said the plaster room was closed and to call back in the morning (she didn't ask any questions, whole cast may have been hanging off for all she knew). Will this be ok until tomorrow? Am I being pfb?

I would take her back in the morning. She can't straighten it or twist it so it will be ok over night. As long as it's not causing her any discomfort I would be happy to follow the advice of the person you spoke to.
