Slings and Chafing
One problem that someone who has ever worn a sling would know just how annoying it is when it starts to chafe. The band going across your torso making contact with your bare neck will eventually annoy you throughout the day, especially if you have a job and can't take many pauses to relieve it.
I have this binder that I have to take to school instead of a backpack while my scaphoid heals. It has a shoulder strap and this padding on the strap that you can move around the strap. This gave me the idea to remove this padding and put it on the sling. Works like a charm.
I went to a surgeon and discovered that my radius is perfectly fine, but the scaphoid is fractured. No surgery is needed, but I'm in a cast until around December 18. I'll keep updating this with discoveries and life hacks.
