Speaking of injuries that prevent you from taking a shower, I can recommend Welmedix No Rinse Body Wash as a helpful tool. It's especially useful if you're wearing a cast or splint that you can't get wet. It's a foam that you apply, scrub, then wipe off. No water required. It has a slightly antiseptic odor, and until your skin dries it might feel slightly sticky, but it will definitely help in the cleanliness department. One bottle doesn't cost much and lasts a long time. It's worth a try, right?
