Cast & Wound Protectors for Showering: Keep Dressings Dry

Cast protectors (also called wound protectors or shower covers) are waterproof sleeves that seal around a cast, bandage, or wound site to keep it dry during bathing.

Key Features

  • Durable, waterproof materials (typically PVC or similar)
  • Elastic or adjustable seals to prevent water entry
  • Available for arms, legs, feet, and torso
  • Reusable or single-use options

Usage Tips

  • Ensure proper size for a secure seal without cutting off circulation.
  • Follow manufacturer instructions for application and duration.
  • Inspect for leaks before each use.
  • Remove promptly after showering to allow skin to breathe.

Consult your healthcare provider for product recommendations specific to your wound or cast type.
