Best Waterproof Cast Protectors 2021

There is a problem everyone with a cast will eventually have to confront: how do I wash without getting my cast wet? Short of awkwardly hanging your leg out the bath or dragging five leaky shopping bags into the shower, it can be hard to find a solution. To save you a headache – and a soggy cast – here's our review of the Best Waterproof Cast Protectors 2020.

What's the Solution?

The solution is to use a waterproof cast protector. Cast protectors are designed specifically to protect your cast against water. A cast protector usually takes the form of a kind of large bag that fits over your cast, where a zip or seal will then prevent water from entering the cast. Here at Health and Care, we sell two different types of cast protectors.

• Waterproof Shower Cast Protectors
• Outdoor Weather Cast Protectors

How Do I Find the Correct Cast Protector For Me?

The first thing that you need to establish is whether or not you need the brace for indoor use (showering) or outdoor use (walking in wet weather). For indoor shower use, we would recommend the brand Limbo, and for outdoor use we would recommend the brand OUTCAST.

The next two steps that you need to take are deciding who is using it and for which part of the body. Thankfully, we sell cast protectors for both adults and children and we sell protectors for many parts of the body, including the leg, arm, foot, finger and elbow.
