Waterproof handcover

We are going away next week and my son has recently had operation on his hand. Does anyone have any recommendations for a waterproof cover we can put over his hand so he can go swimming? Thanks

A latex glove taped up with waterproof tape.

Is it in plaster, or just dressings ? A washing up glove duct taped to his wrist would work for dressings, or a Limbo for plaster

His hand has dressings on it. Thanks for replies- would water not get into the washing up glove?

Not if you duct tape it down firmly. But he shouldn't swim fully anyway, just splash around in the pool as swimming will push on his hand
