A 5yr old has a lot of new metal in his forearm after a cycle crash in the

park.

He finds it hurts if given the wrong sort of tap while playing. ''Don't play then'' is not the
advice he wants to hear.

Does anyone know where I can get body armour for the arm to fit such a

small boy?

Has anyone come across orthopaedic armour of a suitable type?

any advice accepted gratefully.

Just a suggestion. Try a sports shop selling protective gear for skateboarding.

Cut up an old Karrimat and gaffer tape it round his limbs.

Just a thought. If you go through the stock of children's shin guards at a good sports
outfitters you might be able to find something that can be made to work, possibly with the aid
of a tubular bandage.
