well, can't help you on the itching part. they didn't cast my broken leg. instead, i got a steel rod implanted. so while i didn't itch, i do set off some metal detectors. i'd call it a good trade off. getting around though, first off, i'd say enjoy the handicap sticker! crutches do suck, but they're not too bad. just take it slow as you get used to them, they take a bit more energy to use than normal walking (who's used to having thier arms carry their weight?).
good luck, hopeyou have a speedy recovery!
