All reviews are about casts - what about a bandage w/ ace wrap from surgery but not broken bone on foot?

The cast protector was for taking showers and it kept the water out 100%. I see no reason it will not work 100% to protect a bandage w/ ace wrap during a shower.

Yes it will work in wrap I had very large wrap on before cast and it worked great.

I did not have a cast either. I had a triple wrap with compression. Weeping edema caused infection. blech. These protectors saved my sanity. I had not had a shower in months. I was very depressed about that. The protector fit on my very large leg, and kept the bandage completely dry. My husband came in the bathroom when I was finished and I was crying, he asked why and I said I never knew a shower could mean so much. Then I burst out laughing, and he looked at me and I said, They charged me 8$ for this and I would have paid a hundred. I then ordered 5 more boxes (2 per box) to have extra and give to friends that needed them. Hope my long answer helps. Blessings J

I also had surgery and my foot was wrapped, but I had to wear an Aircast over it to immobilize the ankle. I included this in my review because, as many know, these types of temporary casts are very bulky. I thought it was informative to point out that the Curad protector actually fits over it. In your case, all you need to know is whether it keeps your foot dry. For me it did. Good luck with your recovery!

I have wondered that myself. I see it for sale in our local drug store, which is a Leader Brand store and it's with human bandages and wraps. Might check with your vet or doctor on that one to be sure!

After hip replacement surgery, I used it only for compression stockings. For regular socks, I used a different type. I still have the Jobst device. If you live locally, you could have it for nothing. I only used it for 3 weeks; after which, stockings were still fine. I was able to use the device by myself. Also useful for helper who does not have the hand strength to pull apart a surgical stocking. This could be a spouse.

I would get a longer one. I had the bunion surgery...twice. First time they put in a pin and I had a surgical shoe; a short one would have worked. The pin slipped and the next one was a cast up to my knee so I would would have needed a longer one.

Absolutely! Goes on even better because you need not stretch it as much to get it over the bandage. I love mine. Felt so good to shower after surgery and not have to worry about water in my wound.

I am not sure if they will fit over a cast. There must be special socks for that. Search on amazon, google or ask your medical professional.

I used when it when I twisted the ankle. As long as there is no cut or scratch on it

I had a surgical splint and it fit fine. I think the boot would depend on how big the boot is- The problem would likely be getting it on. It did fit over my regular cast with penty of roon to spare.

I am 5'3" and bought the short leg version. It came up to just above my knee and was perfect to protect my feet. I had surgery on both feet but no cast but I think there would be plenty of room even if I had had one. Once you get it on, be sure to to pull it down a little to create a good seal. I know some people have just used plastic wrap, but this was so much easier.

I looked all over amazon, the web, and all of the stores in my area and came up with nothing. My toe was broken and I needed something to keep my toe from bending so I used popsicle sticks and sports wrap. Wasn't very good. Good luck!

Yes. ACE bandages are made of high quality and can easily be washed and reused.

1 pair rubber gloves, 1 gauze wrap, 1 Quick Clot "bag" (put entire bag on wound), 2 2x2 gauze pads, 6 alcohol wipes, some duct tape to help hold the gauze wrap in place. Unfortunately, had to use one 3 days ago. Really worked though, and the package is resealable, so you can store the stuff you don't use.

I am 5'8 145 and am regular in all dimensions. I ordered a Large Half Leg HL15xp and it worked with all the casts that I was put in. some casts were fatter, some not, some covered my toes and some did not. The DRYPRO waterproof leg protector that I ordered worked well and I still have it for future casts that I may encounter. I broke my talus which apparently is a bad bone to break and it has a reputation as one which doesn't like to heal. Hope this helps. Take care and good luck. Marcus

Only you know if you're capable of standing in the shower. If you can't, then take a bath, and get someone to help you. This product is for keeping your cast\bandage dry.

You must be thinking of a different product. My MalleoTrain brace is nearly two years old, but it did not include any tape or strapping of any kind. It is simply a very well-reinforced sleeve (exactly like the photograph shows). It was one of several different braces I purchased for use after ankle reconstructive surgery. I found this MalleoTrain brace to be most comfortable and effective for my needs. I hope this helps you.

They have a "regular size leg" and a "wide leg" protector in several lengths. I used the wide leg to go over a bandaged foot with surgical shoe on it. Some had complained that the regular leg ring wasn't wide enough to fit a cast or large bandaged foot through the ring, so I got the wide leg which has a larger plastic ring and had no problem with it. the rubber gasket will fit your leg snug on either to keep water out. It's the ring size that matters for what has to pass through it.

The Terries Slip Resistant Socks stretch but I do not believe they would stretch over a leg cast. You will need to find a slip resistant product designed for a cast.
