Katy from Cranberry Township, PA

Anthony,
Thanks for shipping so promptly.
My son is going crazy. He is 9.
He has a severely sprained thumb.
He will have the cast on for 4-6wks.

I think it is itchier than a break because
there is no pain now that his thumb is stable.

I typed into Windows Live Search "itch in a cast."
There is a wooden version but
I thought yours is a better design:)
I am a little skeptical of the spray.
Plus, it is a lot easier to take the Castscratcher to school.

I had a cast, toes to thigh, in 6th grade.
Used the wrong end (not the point) of a knitting needle
to scratch behind my knee. I managed to pull most
of the cheese cloth up from my ankle into a big bunch
behind my knee. I didn't tell anyone,
didn't want to get into trouble!!
Boy, was it a mess when the cast came off.

There is some mom that offers advice.
Her site comes up first in the search.
I cringed when she recommended a knitting needle.
I'm sure she meant to use the point.
I don't really think that's such a hot idea
either or even that effective.
Katy

Anthony,
My son's thumb healed just fine, thanks.
The Castscratcher was a great help.
We have since used it for other
family members who have had casts!

It's truly a mind-saver and never "overscratched."
Thanks for a great product.
I highly recommend it.
Katy
