Can you ride rides at Disney World with a cast?

The Guest Policies do warn that you should be in good health before riding but a mid-forearm cast shouldn't prevent wearing any ride restraints to my knowledge. I would suggest having a chat with your doctor before your trip. They'd be able to best advise you on what's safe and what isn't.

Guests have to step down in order to board some attractions like Space Mountain and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster. Cast Members are not allowed to physically lift guests so keep that in mind. If your teenager doesn't have any problems with any of these, then they should be able to ride.

Kate, to my understanding, Guests are still able to enjoy most of their favorite rides, even if they currently have a cast. My best piece of advice would be to reach out to your doctor prior to your trip to see if there are any activities that your son may want to steer clear of.
