I can't stand to be restricted in any way and had a cast put on my arm.?

It's totally constricting me and driving me crazy. Does anyone have any suggestions before I cut it off?
Answer:
try to think of something esle focusing on it makes it worse I know what being restricted feels like .. I AM CLOSTERPHOBIC .. i think i spelled it wrong but u know what i mean
that is the breaks -no bun intended-with having a cast put on for broken bones. just grin and bear it -- after all a cast on the arm is better than no arm to put a cast on.
You can ask the doctor for a removable cast.There are brands out there that can be removed by velcro, zipper, clips, or other fastening device so you can shower with it off.It depends on where your arm is broken. And even if you get the removable cast, I wouldn't abuse the privilege. Remember... if it heals incorrectly, they're going to have to re-break the bone and set them properly.That's not all that fun. (Not to mention longer time spent in a cast)
Why would you cut it off?? What if your arm is not even healed? I don't think anyone likes a cast, I had a cast on my entire leg when I was 18 and I had to deal with it, at least you can walk around easily.
