How to Make a Waterproof Sleeve for a Broken Arm
- 1). Begin by wrapping the cast in the saran wrap, starting at the top of the cast.
- 2). Apply several layers of the saran wrap before descending down the cast. Tuck the saran wrap into the cast at the top.
- 3). Continue wrapping the cast down the arm, remembering to pull the saran wrap tightly.
- 4). Wrap the saran wrap around the wrist and fingers. Poke a hole through the wrap to allow the thumb to come through. Tear a larger hole through the wrap so all four fingers can fit through, and tuck the wrap into the cast.
- 5). Wrap the saran wrap upwards after fitting the fingers through. Wrap all the up the cast, again tucking the wrap into the top of the cast.
- 6). Fit a plastic bag over the cast. Similar to the saran wrap, poke holes to fit fingers through and tuck the bag into the cast.
- 7). Put a latex glove on to the hand over the cast. This will allow you to use your hand freely in water.
