A member asked:
My 7yo son broke his fibia in 2 places a week ago and was operated on. he wears an aircast, should it be worn when sleeping as well?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I would: You never know how active a kid is in sleep & he would not be aware enough to avoid putting the leg into a bad position. The Aircast is a convenient way to provide stability with improved access for bathing/etc. but it is meant to be on continuously. Any change in that idea should come from the doc who put him in it.
