Swimming ?

[fendweller]

Does anyone know if you can swim in the sea when having anticoagulant injections, going to Yorkshire for a few days ,yes I know the sea will be freezing ,but I've always loved sea swimming ,can't get hold of my csn to ask her .

I swim in the sea all the time and I've been on them for months. No one said not to.

In that case freezing or not here I come .Thank you for answering , after I finished chemo my oncologist said give it a couple of weeks then start swimming again ,but then I thought about injection sites and infection ,but if your OK I'm up for it .xx

I would have thought that you could, but I’m not an expert. Could you chat to your GP?

Enjoy the swim if you decide to go for it!! Nicky.
