I have to have some blood tests taken in the morning. Is it ok to swim right after? I read online that you shouldn't swim due to possible infection in at the needle site. Sounds ridiculous, but want to be careful.
I usually swim (or otherwise work out) before blood tests.
I'm on a blood thinner, so the puncture site can sometimes look pretty bad after. Whether or not it is safe, it just doesn't look right.
Swimming the next day has never been a problem for me either.
(but I've learned to wait a few days before doing arm curls :afraid:)
