Hello,
My 8-year old son has been wearing a Boston brace for a couple of months, but never yet in warm weather. Our summers are usually in the high 80's and 90's, and close to 100 when we camp in the summer.
Realistically, should I expect him to wear his brace less often in the summertime than he does in the cooler weather that we have now? I have been trying to find summer camps that have swimming and that have some time inside a cooler place.
If you have any suggestions for making the brace more tolerable in the hot weather, I would appreciate it.
Thank you,
