Guest guest Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Hi all! I was hoping you could help. My son Blake is now in his helemt (hanger orthotic), and has been for amonth now. How do you prevent the little opening on his head from getting burned. Spray sun tan lotion? Somehting over the helemt on top? Ideas? This may be an easy question, but I want to do the right thing. Thank you! Alyson Mom to Blake 7months old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Hi Alyson- Good question! I totally forgot about that issue. You can spray sunscreen on his head (I liked using the aerosol can types from Target, they're not as thick and oily). You just have to wait about 10-20 minutes until it completely dries into his skin to put the band back on. My son wore a DOCBand all last summer and those were the instructions we were given from CT and it worked great. Good luck!
