This episode breaks down one of the most complex and sensitive halachic questions in Hilchot Niddah: Does wearing a medical cast create a Chatzitzah?
We walk through the major positions of leading poskim — including Rav Eliezer Waldenberg, Rav Zalman Nechemia Goldberg, Rav Zvi Pesach Frank, and the Sidrei Taharah — and explain why this issue is so difficult.
You’ll hear:
Why some poskim insist on removing the cast whenever possible
Why others argue that a cast may not be considered a Chatzitzah, since it’s medically necessary and not viewed as “objectionable”
This is a clear, structured guide to one of the hardest real-life Chatzitzah dilemmas.
