A member asked:
Can i ask my gp to take off the cast and have a look what is going on with the burning feeling in her hand as the er told her they are full with covid patients and her orthophedic surgeon is on leave till 14 aug. this is week after surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cast issues: I think it would be reasonable to discuss this request with the GP. I am assuming you are in South Africa. The GP will ultimately accept that plan or help come up with an alternative.
