CureSquad Waterproof Cast Cover Arm for Shower 🩹
Description:
This soft arm protector from CureSquad keeps casts and dressings dry while showering and during light water contact. It functions as a waterproof cast cover for shower use and offers a stretch fit for everyday hygiene and short swims, helping to reduce the risk of moisture-related irritation.
Key Points
The cover is made from high-strength medical-grade silicone that forms a tight seal around the limb without strong odour. This improved design replaces a bulky plastic ring with a softer silicone sealing edge for greater comfort and easier handling. The opening has been enlarged to accommodate a wide range of arm sizes, and the material is described by the manufacturer as elastic yet gentle on the skin. For convenience, a small hook on the cover allows quick drying and compact storage after use. 😊
Benefits
Wearing the protector allows showering without removing dressings or risking moisture near wounds, burns or grafts. The soft material reduces rubbing and is unlikely to leave pressure marks while still maintaining circulation. The absence of a hard ring also makes putting on and taking off the cover simpler, which can matter for users with limited dexterity. Reusable construction means it can be used multiple times after cleaning, and the surface dries quickly when hung by the hook. Note that, according to the manufacturer, the cover is not intended for deep or prolonged submersion and may not be suitable for all aquatic activities. 🛁

Usage Recommendations
Slide the cover over the arm and ensure the softer silicone rim sits comfortably against the skin to form a seal. Avoid forcing the entry if the limb has an unusual shape or very large circumference, as fit may vary between individuals. Clean the inside and outside with mild soap and air dry on the integrated hook between uses to keep the seal hygienic. For water activities beyond showers or brief swims, consider the limitations noted by the manufacturer and exercise caution when fully immersed.
