General info: If child gets sick in cast?

[Guest guest]

isn't sick, but we're being protective. I'm curious...if

were to get a cold/flu in the cast, do they remove the cast?

or do they leave them in the cast and treat the illness? I know they

won't allow children to undergo anesthesia while sick, but I was

curious about what happens when the child is in cast already.

Thank you!
