Casting at Alliance Orthopedics

Casting is a common treatment for joint pain and other musculoskeletal injuries. It involves using a plaster or fiberglass cast to immobilize the affected joint.

Casts are used to treat a variety of conditions, including:

  • Fractures
  • Sprains
  • Dislocations
  • Broken bones

Casts can easily be molded to the contours of the body and are usually applied by a medical professional. They can be left in place for several weeks or months, depending on the severity of the injury.

Once the cast is applied, it will need to be regularly checked for fit and comfort. In addition, it is essential to keep the cast clean and dry. The skin around the cast should also be periodically inspected for any signs of irritation to ensure a quicker and easier recovery.

The Benefits of Casting

Using a cast to treat a musculoskeletal or joint injury has a number of benefits. By immobilizing the affected area, it can help to:

  • Reduce pain
  • Prevent further damage
  • Promote healing
  • Realign broken bones or joints
