Iguana bites are not common, but iguanas certainly can bite if provoked. Fortunately, iguanas give plenty of warning when they are not happy, usually in the form of hissing and tail whipping. Failure to notice such warnings could have a bad outcome. While a baby or young iguana bite will be merely a painful nip, a bite from an adult iguana will be far more serious and may result in the need for stitches. Read the warning signs and this situation should never arise.
Scratches are by far the most common injury from pet iguanas. Keep in mind that iguanas are arboreal lizards, and, as such, their claws are long and sharp to help them climb. If they become startled, they will cling on wherever they are. If this happens to be your arm, you may get some nasty scratches. Trimming the claws will reduce scratching.
