Use our easy-to-follow guide to find the correct DRICAST cover size and enjoy a smoother recovery.

Step 1: Measure your cast or injured area

Leg models: Measure from the heel to about 5cm past the end of the cast or dressing/bandage to allow enough area to seal to your skin.

Arm models: Measure from the fingertips to about 5cm past the end of the cast or dressing/bandage to allow enough area to seal to your skin.

For arm models that go around a bent elbow, measure the longest distance around the bend.

Measure the circumference of the cast for leg and arm models.

Measuring tip: A soft tape measure is best. If you do not have one, place a piece of string or cord around the cast and hold the area required to be measured. Carefully remove the string, then measure that length with a ruler or tape measure.

Step 2: Check the size table

Ensure you select a cover that will fit over your cast or injury, including both length and circumference.

Child covers tip: Children near puberty may need adult sizes. Choose accordingly based on measurements.

1. Measure your cast or injured area before choosing your size.
   
2. Carefully stretch the DRICAST cover opening and slide it over the cast.
   
3. Position the seal area above the cast or dressing so it sits directly against the skin.
   
4. Check that the seal feels firm, but not too tight.
   
5. Use only while showering, bathing, or swimming.
   
6. After use, remove carefully and allow the cover to dry naturally away from direct light.
   

Do not use over an open wound unless the wound is covered by a sterile covering and you have followed medical advice.

Care required for your DRICAST cover:

Do not walk with your DRICAST leg cover on

Avoid anything that may pierce the cover.

Use for 15 to 20 minutes at a time

To avoid condensation build-up, only use your DRICAST cover for 15 to 20 minutes at any one time. Allow it to dry naturally out of direct light for approximately 2 hours between uses.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or light sources.
