Anyone had a broken hand bone and know how long the cast is on for?
Spent 4 hours in A&E last night and had cast fitted, but appt with Ortho's is not till next Friday.
We go on holiday on 18th July so hoping it will be off by then (his leg was in cast for 9 weeks)! He will be devasted if unable to swim as swims & dives every week!
He is already worrying about not showering every morning!
Is 4 weeks the norm for a hand?

DS has broken scaphoid, arm in plaster. Is it likely to be off before we go on Holiday?
