Good day hope this finds you well. i cracked my ankle a few days ago and got a plaster cast around it. i suspect the injection they gave me is giving bad pains and it's unbearable. i can't sleep or lay down properly

Call Dr.: Where ever you got the cast or where you are expected to follow up, is where you should call and let them know your concerns , sometimes there are issues with a cast that need to be addressed. Do not wait!
