That is the woman's choice if for appearance not some medical reason
that may or may not be needed. Similar to having a man shave his beard
off to go to the dentist to get a tooth filled. Not many would like
that .

I am surprised that the Brits do not do this as problems can result.
Staph bacteria exist on the skin and can infect the body.* I had
it happen a few months ago with an injection into my eye for wet
AMD. Was a bitch to deal with as four more injections were needed
to clear it up: one to identify bacteria (it was staph), two of
antibiotic and one of steroid.

Not trying to scare anybody about getting injected and suspect if
it happened with skin injection the infected could just take
antibiotic orally.
*
Fair enough, but comparing an eye injection to an arm jab is
totally different I suspect.

I did not research the whole thing but there is maybe just about as
much of a problem.

https://www.verywellhealth.com/injec...doctor-2616542


It may be questionable as to the injection site being sterilized first.


A quick swipe with an alcohol swab will not sterilize the skin.
Otherwise, surgeons would just swab their hands for a second before
putting on gloves and prepare the operative incision site the same
way. **Thorough cleaning with a much stronger agent is required, both
of hands and incisional site to minimize the risk of contamination.
Additionally, if not allowed to air dry after swabbing, residual
liquid alcohol on the skin will be dragged into the puncture wound
made by the needle, causing unnecessary pain and possibly even
possibly inactivating the drug or vaccine being injected.
Theoretically, you can even float some skin bacteria from the
perimeter of the swab site into the small pool of residual liquid
alcohol and increase the risk of injection site infection unless all
the alcohol is allowed to air dry.* Intact skin on the upper, outer
arm, or on midthigh is relatively clean and a simple swipe with clean
water on a small clean pad or cotton swab and a pat dry with a small
absorbent sterile pad will be just as effective at preventing
injection site infection as using a typical alcohol swipe. However,
patients expect the smell and sting of the alcohol swab and old
habits often die hard even in the face of good data.
*
Thanks, but using old habits should always be updated with good new
evidence...agree?

True but it is probably easier to swab than explain why not to 300
million people.

in spite of someone just posting a study that says the alcohol wipe
doesn't really accomplish much. They also wipe people before a lethal
injection.

The study that I found, from 2003, was related to innoculations
in Africa, where the swab was usually a cotton ball fetched from
a jar of alcohol. The swab itself was contaminated. The study
also stated that you still need to swab dirty skin, but you should
do it with a single-use swab.

Far more studies indicate that the swab causes no harm and is
otherwise efficacious.

A simple google search for "why swab an injection site" will
provide you with more than sufficient information.
