Hi

I broke my leg skiing 2 days ago and the french medical unit has not given me a splint or cast. i intend to visit a uk hospital on my return, as it is an incomplete fracture, does anyone know if they put fractures in casts nowadays?

Hi. Its usually in what they call a moon boot. Its a material thing that wraps round your leg then it goes in an outer plastic bit. It can get blown up to make it tight. This is what i got. I hope you get it sorted out soon.

Oh dear. I know how u feel. Those things are actually quite good as u can take them iff for a shower and things. Well maybe not supposed to in some cases but i did for sleeping. When are you back home?
