WHAT'S IN MY BAG? - Broken Leg Edition (feat Daniel J Layton)

[@martonhabel4208]

When taking off the cast, don't forget to bring your OTHER shoe along. Actual experience.

[@TheHazelHayes]

I'm getting a boot but that is hilarious!

[@underscoreannie]

You’re not the only one, I also left my other shoe at home when I got my cast off

[@courtneyhansen9686]

Same thing happened to me... it was very silly walking around the hospital and car park with a long socks and one shoe 😂

[@parallax4016]

me, expecting dan to provide relevant good information about magnesium: dan: it burns white! hazel: good.

[@rfldss89]

Don't go lighting you supplements on fire though. Only the metallic form of magnesium burns bright. The magnesium salts contained in supplements are already fully oxidized so the only thing burning would probably be the pill's coating, and I'm not sure that would be a pleasant experience. PS: a magnesium flame very bright and even produces UV light so don't look straight into it, if you do manage to find elemental magnesium.

[@ginime_]

relevant good information! who do you think Dan is?!

[@amyjanette94]

ah yes, the crucial vitamins: calcium, d3, c and marmalade. (i’ve missed hazel content though, welcome back

[@traceylovestravel]

It'll be stinky and hairy, so slap on ALL the moisturiser and a gentle exfoliator. Also prop it up in the sun for a while with the boot off, feels like heaven!

alternatively, dan was thinking about the old Capital One card commercials: whats in YOUR bag(wallet)?

[@MeetSupergirl]

When I was 16, I tore the ligaments in my ankle badly enough to need a cast and I think I had it on for 8 weeks. It was the hairiest leg I'd ever experienced. My body hair grows quite quickly, so because I'd still been shaving the other leg in the shower as normal, I had one completely smooth leg and the other was like chewbacca.

[@LDJ27]

MeetSupergirl I had the exact same experience! Looked so weird 😂

[@TheHazelHayes]

Chewbacca was a great reference. I feel like I can really picture that leg now.

[@mishka7240]

I had something similar with my forearm - my hair is quite dark and i'm fair-skinned, so there was lily white skin and then black hair on my right arm! it was also hairier than my other arm because the hairs couldn't fall off or go anywhere

[@anna.jogiaas]

bit disappointed that you didnt caption this "feet Daniel J Layton" get well soon xox!

[@KatherineAmber]

magnesium helps you sleep You may already know this, but the tool they use to remove a cast uses vibration to cut it. The actual "blade" isn't sharp, so it can't cut you in any way

[@Linaker22]

Hazel: cries Dan: *small concern* but then "wow?"

[@clairegoodenough9800]

Perhaps when Hazel was woozy from the painkillers she thought she was momentarily doing a 'what's in Paddington's bag?' video?

I really enjoy these chill sitting chatting type of videos with hazel and friends. they're all so funny and genuine it's refreshing and nice

[@Zivader]

I broke both my arms when i was a kid, and having both arms in casts made me feel like a useles c3po. Getting the casts off was a relief, that feeling of being vulnerable outside of the cast will go away quickly, especially when you feel an itch and you can actually scratch it.

[@TheCheeseCurds]

I broke my leg this past February and had to have surgery to put a plate and 7 screws in. I was bed ridden, and plastic bag showering for 4 months. And I totally get the ‘putting the book down to never pick it up again’ thing! It’s so true you think you’ll have all this time now but you spend it watching Netflix or sleeping cause it’s so painful! I am back to work now but have a month or so of Physio first before going back! I was so so so scared to put weight on my foot for such a long time and then one day just tried walking to the bathroom, and it was okay! It was weird of course but I felt so accomplished! I immediately ‘ran’ to my mom and showed her LOOK I CAN WALK! She was just happy she wouldn’t have to bring me breakfast anymore lol! But in all seriousness it’ll be weird having the cast off, but you’ll be back at it in no time! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@lausampaio8933]

mid baking with layton, news of a vid coming out with dodie, dan, hazel, comedy gold and just random brilliant commentary by mr layton. Yeah. Thats the content I need and love.

[@amandafreke1798]

For me the worst thing about getting my cast off after 10 weeks was not the hairy legs or the smell but the part where the orthopaedic specialist told me to stand up on my leg. It was like fire through my heel and up my shin. He described it as my nerves waking up again. Luckily my nerves are morning people and that sensation passed pretty quickly. Oh and I was lucky that my cast didn't itch too much when it was on. However when it came off it was like my skin could finally breathe and that't when the itching commenced. I scratched my leg raw on one part. Try not to do that.

I’ve really missed Hazel’s content! Glad you’re back!!

[@laram3761]

A few years ago I had a moon boot on my right leg for about 6 weeks. While it was great because I could take it off to shower, putting weight on it consistently proved to do more harm than good; while my actual leg injury was fine, the height under the moon boot supporting my foot meant that the length of my legs was uneven when I walked, meaning I developed tendinitis in my hip which I still have today. I would say that the moon boot is a great thing, getting the cast off isn't as scary as it sounds (the moon boot is actually really supportive and padded), and that slowly putting weight on your leg while still using crutches is the best way to go; just ensure that when you begin walking with only the moon boot, you're wearing a shoe with a decent-sized sole on the other foot. Can't wait for your video with dodie!

[@aki-est]

I got my cast off when I was seven and the sight of my weak pale arm covered in dead skin was so much that I cried all day

[@TheHazelHayes]

Yeah I'm prepared to cry a lot. But what's new?

[@erindillman]

the boot is honestly so much better Hazel, and to get the cast off is just a bit of vibration and it doesn't cut you or hurt or anything. I was afraid too but it was pretty chill.

[@kendallm8331]

About 6 years ago I had my leg in a cast for about a month (long story) and I’ve also had my arm in a cast for 3 weeks (2 separate occasions, another long story). Let me tell you, the sensation of getting a cast off is HEAVENLY. The feeling of fresh air hit you leg again after having it wrapped up for so long is wonderful, the only thing I would caution you about is what your foot might look like. Since you haven’t been putting any weight on it your leg is going to look small and your skin is going to look off and that can be a little unsettling at first. As for learning how to walk again, the best advice I got is to sit at the edge of a pool with your feet in the water and slowly rotate the ankle you broke. Honestly swimming did wonders for me as I was getting movement back because the water felt nice and the fluid movement helped get strength back in my ankle. I would also pace in my room without a boot because I could use furniture for support and my room is small so I didn’t have to walk far. In the 18 years of my mediocre existence I’ve broken 5 different bones, so if you have any other questions I’ll probably be able to answer them because at this point I’m a fucking expert. 👍🏻

[@LDJ27]

I tore my ankle ligaments and needed a cast, and it was horrific, so I get where you’re coming from! It was in winter and I had to walk to school every day. On crutches. On icy pavement. With a men’s sock over my foot so my toes wouldn’t freeze. I actually cried from frustration on the way to school multiple times. Yep. Anyway, getting the cast off is totally fine! Be ready for a weirdly pale and hairy leg, and also it looked thinner than my other leg at first? But take it slow for a while and you’ll be fine! Also, it’s great to see you making videos again and I’m excited to read the book 💖

[@TheEpicPlace]

You guys have literally saved me so many boring or sick days with your hilarious videos making the best out of situations. Thanks ever so much and feel better soon! 💕

[@stacybruin6779]

a mini cast coming off what to expect (at least from my past experiences): 1) weirdly pale skin and dark hair growth in the area 2) loss of muscle mass/tone (your leg will probably be noticeably thinner looking than the other - normal!) 3) weakness in the limb, and soreness during and after use (an ache, not so bad for me; really bad for some) 4) you'll be scared to use it for a bit, then you'll feel invincible; you are not. hope that helps :)

[@mishka7240]

Having flashbacks to my experiences - tried to go jogging a week after taking off my moon boot and have regretted few things more than that decision while 3km from home and limping. luckily my friend was with me!

[@mishka7240]

I had a cast on my right arm (yes i'm right-handed) and a moon boot on my left leg - thankfully not at the same time - and the boot is so much more convenient and comfortable. when my cast came off, my forearm was thinner than my left one because you lose muscle mass not doing anything with it. the boot is extremely supportive though; i wore mine through a choir trip and it was fine even with all the standing and singing and walking around. it hurts as you start to use the limb again, but nowhere near as much as in the first few weeks of having it in a cast. Get well soon!

[@oliverjones2297]

I've literally just got off a 4 day walking expedition with no internet and this is the first thing I've watched. get well soon hazel!!!! and when you're sad in the shower think of me, face covered in midge bites, hobbling through my day

[@KittenAndMittens]

wow this gave me flashbacks to when i broke my ankle and theres no experience like sitting on a plastic lawn chair in the shower with nothing but a leg condom on is there

[@TheHazelHayes]

Nothing quite compares.

[@meabh8152]

Ive never broken my ankle or keg but i have broken my arm before and a think any who has had a cast will agree that getting it cut off is the BEST and most exciting thing about having a cast. Get well soon Hazal

[@galexandra]

Good luck and wishing you a speedy recovery! I broke my leg a few years ago, and I don't remember having any issues with the cast removal. I stayed on crutches for a while though, as I gradually pit more and more weight on it. The only issue I has was I get really dry skin, and I'll leave you to imaging what 6 weeks without moisturizer does!

[@HeadsorTailors]

Getting your cast off is so freeing!! It's definitely not scary and is v exciting to know that you've almost healed completely! I was so excited to get mine off after they initially extended my time in the cast after finding another break. The physical therapy afterwards can seem a bit much and frustrating, but be kind to yourself and think about how difficult it truly is to retrain a stiff motor skill 💖💖💖 Ankles are complicated beasts! Also I hope you're doing alright! Your ankle may be healing, but please keep your heart in mind too!! I'm glad you've got such a lovely group to help lift you up right now and I know you're a fucking strong woman who will come out the other side with an ass kicking leg!!

[@sjduda]

when I got my leg cast off my leg felt very sensitive, but was probably mostly in my head. I’d say it’s important to take time and kinda ease into using it more and more as you’re comfortable, but stretching and moving it around works wonders.

[@SunniixLoo]

Back in February and March, I was stuck in the hospital for a month after I had an operation on both Achilles' tendons and was I had casts on both legs for about three weeks - so not a broken bone, but I still couldn't weight bare. The first 10 days post surgery I was completely bed bound and the hospital staff had to use a mechanical hoist to get me to and from the bed and bathroom. Those wound casts were just cut off and then later on the same day they started me trying to walk using a forearm support walking frame. At first, my muscles could only handle a metre or so at a time, but I slowly built it up (on advice from the hospital physios). They put me in moon boots for about a week, but after realising that it wasn't helping my tendons reform in the right position, they cast me in fibreglass for a week - looked similar to what your cast does now. I could still hobble around - they gave me these rubber slides that would velcro over my foot and I used a Zimmer walking frame to help me get around my hospital room. Getting those casts off didn't hurt at all - the blade just felt like it was vibrating against my skin - and walking afterwards was still a bit tender, but I used elbow crutches and managed to get around more and more every day. I totally get what you mean about being a bit scared about weight bearing after they take the casts off. I was terrified the morning they took the casts off. But the physios and Occupational therapists will help you adjust to the new normal and teach you techniques to manage everyday things. I couldn't get up and down stairs but needed to so I could access my flat. The physios taught me the best way to approach the stairs so I wouldn't hurt myself: "good to heaven, bad to hell" - when you go up, use your best leg first and when you're going down use your bad leg first.) Trust in your physios and OT's. Also, because I know how mind-altering the pain killers can be, write down any questions you've got when you think of them (phone, notepad, ask one of your mates, etc) so you can ask the pros when they take the cast off. If you want to ask me anything else, I'm @SunniixLoo on twitter :)

[@Artemisdianaxxx]

I had a space boot for my broken ankle and it’s awesome I promise. It makes you feel very protected and also you have so much more movement. And you could always use it with crutches to begin with I’m sure

[@nicholasgibbons]

Hi Hazel, my surgery was minor compared to yours but learning to walk again was an interesting experience. The fear of putting weight on the foot is real, and I found I was changing my gait which was hurting my opposite knee and hip through trying to over-protect the damaged foot. Ease yourself back in gently as I tried to do too much too quickly and found it painful due to the incorrect walking method which I then had to consciously fix, and also exhausting. Good luck (I've already pre-ordered your book :) )

[@Worthington1138]

I remember getting my cast off was so freeing. I broke my foot in middle school and was in a cast forever, I was able to walk on it the last few weeks. The day I got the cast off I could feel the wind on my leg again and I never realized I missed that. Wearing my favorite socks, being able to scratch my leg, washing my leg freely. Keeping it casted and taking the right vitamins leads to a literally freeing and healthy reward. God be with our mortal souls.

[@papaquonis]

If you haven't watched Hazel's Instagram story "I broke my leg" - why not? Everyone needs to watch it, it's an absolute rollercoaster ride.

[@LottieBruce99]

My one piece of advice is WEAR THE BOOT AS LONG AS THE DOCTORS TELL YOU TO!!!!! My dad (who is an orthopaedic surgeon might I add) broke his ankle and he did not wear his moon boot (he refused to get a cast as if he did he wouldn’t be allowed in surgery/be able to operate) as much or for as long as he should have and it took so much longer than it should have to heal Also getting the cast off is such a relief, I had my wrist in a cast for 2 weeks (not as long as you’ll have to suffer) and it was great to be able to move my hand again, which had been bent slightly back for the whole time and to be able to run it under cool water was so nice.

[@eloisefaithibarbia5057]

I love these surprise uploads.

[@miriambe7150]

Only had my arm broken before and it also was like 15 years ago. But I remember my arm felt like jelly on the way home because the street was so bumpy. But I had no pain whatsoever and since it was my dominant hand, it didn't take me that long to use it normally again. Obviously it's probably a bit different with a broken leg, but as long as it's healed properly and you go easy at first it should be just fine ✨

[@Zeeee4]

First off, you guys make a great duo. I love your friendship and I couldn’t stop laughing. Secondly, you’re going to be fine when the cast comes off. It might feel a little weird trying to walk again and you’ll probably not want to put pressure on it but with some time and physio, you’ll be back to normal. I dislocated my knee and when I took off my cast / had to walk without crutches for the first time it was so nerve racking but I survived and so will you.

[@niamhl6964]

I had a full arm cast (just under the shoulder to bottom of fingers, bent at my elbow) that was on for like 6 weeks when I was younger. Getting it off was so strange. They used this pizza slicer looking thing, and when they took it off the broken arm looked tiny compared to the non-broken one. IT kinda reinflated fully over the next couple of days, but it felt weak and sensitive to touch. But the first time I got to itch it (I have eczema so the frustration of wearing a cast was even worse) was heavenly.

[@1Dgrimling]

getting the cast off was kinda scary cause they use this saw, but it feels so light and free and is beautiful

[@ngrt3481]

I broke my leg a few years ago and when I got a leg cast off after two months and my leg had turned really skinny. It also felt super weird to move and walk on, almost as if it was asleep, since all the muscles had wiltered away. This only took about 3 days for my body to fix which was quite amazing. Also the leg itself was a bit nasty after 2 months of not showering it, but with a bath and some body scrub that got all sorted. Point is, your body recovers really quickly and then you can WALK and move around again HURRAY. Also generally shout of to you for being lovely and just so creative and funny from Sweden. Seriously it gets all good just take a bath

[@copperrose4376]

Taking a cast off feels like when you wear leggings for a couple more days than you are meant too and it has rained it feels like you are peeling the week old damp leggings off but the saw is rather frightening

[@CaffeineSpeltWrite]

Broke my ankle a few years ago, but not as severe (they just booted me). I started off with a crutch and the boot, but as it started to hurt less the boot on it's own was fine for getting around the house. Did take a crutch with me out incase it started aching. When you switch back to normal shoes I'd recommend flat ankle boots that are tight (so not uggs or similar). I tried wearing floppy boots and found my foot slid and killed my ankle (the muscle wasn't ready for that fight). Also your smart, so this goes without saying, but DO THE PHYSIO. It may hurt to begin with, but you'll get there. I now just get aches if I haven't walked around much for a few days.. or if I sit on it (which I continue to do for some unknown reason). Hope you're up and around soon. Good luck with it all 💙

[@becky8059]

When i was younger i would have both my legs plastered for 6 weeks every year as part of my physiotherapy. Having your cast off is amazing. I got used to having quite wide feet, so always thought my feet looked a bit alien like for a few hours. You can wash your foot then take some cream to moisture it. Be gentle for the first day cause find the muscles and joints a bit weak to begin with cause your not use to it bearing weight. Oh and the removal of the cast! They use a machine that looks like a electric pizza cutter. It is able to remove cast but unable to cut you actual skin. ( they may test it one their hand to prove it :) ). It feels a bit odd, like shocked, but tickled at the same time, completely painless though :) xx

[@muls9571]

Getting your cast off it fine! There's a scary looking tool they use but it's perfectly safe. Your leg will feel very weird afterwards- you'll need to moisturise a lot and putting weight on it will feel super weird. You'll also have 1 tiny calf and 1 normal sized one

[@katelinegan526]

getting a cast off is fun!! it’s a little nerve wracking seeing your leg and how small it is but once you start physical therapy and everything it gets better!! you can do this!! ❤️

[@sakura9400]

Hazel you didn't even put the link to pre-order in the description after prompting Dan to say it haha

[@Pencliff]

When I broke my leg I was really worried about weight bearing after the cast was removed. I still used my crutches for a while afterwards (like too long) and would only put a little bit of weight on but I got more confident over time still with the crutch until I realised I didn't need it. I still limped for a while after but I think I mostly good now. You just have to take your time, push yourself to strengthen the leg even though you won't wanna put any weight on, but don't over do it. You've got to learn to walk again before you can run.

[@_snowylil]

I love the Dan: "It's not, it's an ankle-ache!" Hazel, the least impressed I've ever seen anybody in my life: "Oh my god..."

[@bethjadeldn5505]

I snapped 3 bones in my ankle when I was 7 and I did have to learn to walk again because I was in a cast for just over 6 months and a wheelchair. I hated it especially being so young and not quite understanding the point in even trying to walk but I do remember just practicing standing a lot whilst watching tv with my dad just for about a minute every once in a while - it is painful but you’ll get through it just take it easy.

the only thing that you really have to prepare yourself for is how much it will stink and how dirty it'll be. other than that is not that bad, it will be weird but kinda freeing.

Taking your cast off is like taking off a tight sweaty shirt and your skin just gets that hint of cool air and it’s relieving. Walking on it again isn’t actually that bad, just use the crutches at first for strength and support but you’ll get used it pretty quickly!

[@emilypickup6927]

Not personal experience but my housemate broke her ankle. You'll be so glad to get the boot, its scary but the freedom to move is wonderful

[@isabelthain2227]

When I got my cast off, it tickled. Then after I had to do exercises to get the muscle back. It didn’t hurt and it was scary to begin with but it wasn’t awful and it felt like a weight had been lifted (literally). Hope it all goes well and your back on your feet soon xx

[@carolinamarques2003]

I broke my fibula about a week after you broke your leg, and my cast is getting of tomorrow and I'm legit terrified and stressed about having to put weight on this leg again. However as I lay here with my cast and my leg elevated I was able to get a good laugh and relate a LOT to this video. I also have a broken leg edition bag, however I don't have a leg condom. Too bad I took my last broken leg shower today, it would have been helpful.

Sending healing thoughts... for whatever good they may do. (I suspect they may be even less effective than healing prayers. So, I'll send some of those, too.) BTW... you and Dan make your misery quite enjoyable for us onlookers. So, I'd like to reflect some of that joy back at you for whatever good it may do. And now, here's a showbiz cast story for you. A friend of mine was in a sitcom shot at the Paramount studios and one episode called for him to do a scene in a cast. I was with him as the cast was applied by an old prop guy who told us that he had also done Jimmy Stewart's cast for "Rear Window." Since my friend was wearing the cast for only one shoot day, it was a proper cast that had to be cut off after the filming. But Jimmy Stewart? He had a hinged, velvet-lined cast that could be snapped on and off every day.

[@doodleloo]

When my brother broke my ankle when I was 13 I got a plastic boot from the beginning which was pretty nice for showers, cause I could just take it off. Something that was shocking to me once I didn't have to wear that boot anymore is that I had zero balance on my right foot (the side I broke my ankle) which made washing my left leg and foot in the shower for around 2 weeks a fight against time as I started to fall to the side and pretty painful too. also, stretch your Achilles because otherwise, it will be impossible to crouch as you're used to. The physio therapist told me that but I didn't listen and now I have that trouble

broke my ankle when I was five, and two days ago got a stress fracture in my foot. Luvly. I fortunately have no cast, just the boot, but it is strangely comfortable and my dog really likes it

missed you in long form hazel! (as opposed to twitter/insta short form)

broke my arm a few years ago but i still remember the feeling of getting my cast off, just imagine all the air rushing right to your leg & it going numb or limp for a few seconds. also touching it is going to be a fucking wild experience hazel, numb & bumpy is the best way i can describe it

well, the actual removal is painless and just a bit.. vibraity. after that i was very scared of hurting myself even with the splint on but because your bone has already healed partially it doesn't hurt as much as you would think. just be careful. sending positive vibes and courage your way..
