Clinical Photograph of Blister Following Plaster Cast

The picture in example is of leg of 18 years old boy who had been treated for fracture tibia with plaster cast application. When plaster was opened after two weeks for relentless pain in the limb.

The patient’s limb was kept on Bohler Braun splint and put on calcaneal pin traction.

The fracture healed uneventfully.

Note: Plaster sore is a common complication of the plaster cast application. To minimize the complication, the plaster should be well applied and patient should be instructed to report immediately for any severe pain.
