What is a "cast"?

A cast is a hard, protective shell made of plaster or fiberglass that is used to support and protect a broken or injured arm, leg, or other body part while it heals. It is applied by medical professionals and it wraps around the injured area, keeping the bones in place and preventing them from moving. Casts are crucial for helping bones heal properly and can be customized in size and shape to fit different parts of the body. They typically stay on until the healing process is complete, and afterward they are removed by a healthcare provider.
