Answers:
If you had it casted at an ER, they should have given you an ortho. to follow up with. If you had it done by an ortho., you need to call them & have your cast checked. You should not have any numbness or tingling in your fingers. They may need to check you for damaged nerves, or if you have too much swelling. Good luck!Health Question & Answer
I would suggest that you go back to hospital or your doctor right away and have your cast checked.
