Skin Burn?: Hopefully you did not burn your skin from the hot liquid. I you are having any new pain related to this coffee spill please see your doctor to get the cast changed and to check for a skin burn. Otherwise if the skin is ok, no easy way to clean this. You can use a hair dryer on cool to blow air down the cast to dry it out, but the stain and smell will probably persist.
