Spica Cast

There are different kinds of spica casts, but all are used to prevent the hip or leg from moving after an injury or surgery. Most start from just below the armpits and go down to the ankles on one or both legs. A child is not able to walk in this cast. However, the short-term challenges will pay off. By preventing movement, a spica cast allows the bones to heal properly.
