How to Remove an Arm Cast

An orthopedic cast on a patient's arm, despite limiting his lifestyle, will help a broken bone heal much faster than without one. Modern casts are made out of fiberglass, which is very stiff and keeps the patient's arm immovable and thus more able to heal. Fiberglass casts can have a waterproof liner placed just under the outside fiberglass layer.

Once the injury heals and the cast is no longer necessary, it can be removed easily by a doctor or at home. The doctor will use a small, electrical medical saw to cut off the cast. Saws will easily cut through all cast types (including the waterproof layer in fiberglass casts) but will only tickle the person's arm. At home, soaking a cast in a solution of water and vinegar will slowly dissolve the cast.
