Easier said than done, I suppose... well, anyway, just a few more hours and I'll be downloading 😁

Removing a cast too early

about my thumb cast
I know they aren't scheduled to take it off for another two days, but I was just wondering... I went ahead and trimmed it halfway down myself, because honestly, they made it way too bulky for just a thumb—it almost reaches my elbow at this point. So, I shortened it and it feels a bit better now... but I guess, what would happen if I just took the whole thing off? They're going to be removing it anyway, so maybe I'm just saving them the trouble

Hello
I was wondering if it might be possible for me to remove my cast before my scheduled appointment?
The thing is, I was actually supposed to have it taken off last Friday, but I ended up missing that appointment... so they told me today that it would be removed this coming Friday instead... but, well, as everyone knows, the weather out there is just brutal right now, and since half of my arm is encased in this heavy plaster, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to deal with.
If I were to go ahead and take it off myself, I suppose one wonders what the doctor might say about it?
