how to get smell out of cast?

[Guest guest]

ugh we had an " incident " tonight which involved the dreaded gag reflex &

previously used mac & chess making a reappearance....it of course went down the

top part of the cast. It smells BAD! Any tips on how to get that smell out or at

least manageable for the next 3 weeks while we still have the cast on? We

changed the shirt, did a wipe down with soap & such but I can still smell it &

its by his face so I'm sure he can smell it....any tips?

Hi Amber,You might try a little mild detergent and wipe it out. I use a hairdryer a lot just to get airflow through by sons cast. My son loves the hairdryer. It really helps with overall stickiness from being sweaty too. Be sure to only use a cool setting though. We do it with the undershirt off. Poor guy :-(. I'm sure it will get better.

Sounds like you've done all you can. I think some people have tried

fabreeze but Im not real sure on how it would react w/ baby skin?

Sorry, Im of no help on this one.
