Which rides/attractions don't allow casts (leg/foot)?

I broke my foot last week and we had already booked a trip to universal the third week of October to visit the horror nights, and the two parks. I have a walking cast, and my foot will not be healed completely for 4-6+ months. The trip is in about 7 weeks. The bone should be about 60% healed by then. Short distances I may be able to do in time for the trip without the cast if I can figure out a way to increase muscle strength and feeling in my foot.
I am allowed to start attempting to walk at home for very short amounts of time after the two week point according to the Dr.

My concern is people stepping on my unhealed foot in the horror area but I do not want to skip any of it. This is a really special occasion for me and I can't reschedule it. It's the first time ever visiting Universal. I would like to wear the cast in the houses but I'm not sure if it is restricted? Also, what rides at Universal and IOA restrict passengers with casts? I'm trying to decide whether to wear the cast into the park or leave it at the hotel and use crutches or a wheelchair so I won't be restricted from rides.

I think the cast would be beneficial for my safety for all rides that don't have a restriction. However, I need to plan for the rides that do have restrictions so I can figure out what to do with the cast and how to get to the ride/stand in line. I can't find the information on the specific rides that have cast restrictions online.

Thank you in advance for any help!
 
OP...the only thing I can find on HHN is from last year's event map. It states electronic wheelchairs and ECVs are prohibited from the houses and queues but that's about it...nothing about casts. The map does mention there might be additional health restrictions at each house.

I would be really concerned about your foot if you can't wear a solid cast on it. There are so many people walking and stumbling around that it would be very easy for someone to step on it. If you can't protect it with a solid cast, I don't think I would chance it. I know you really want to go but if something happens while you're here, you will have LOTS more recovery time staring you in the face.
