Well nothing is more refreshing then bathing, even when sick. There used to be an old wise tale that said not to bathe or you'll get sicker. Wrong! Not only is it good to wash away germs and bacteria, but if it is a hot bath or shower, it relieves body aches and can help your head and chest open up and/or clear up. I make a hot bath and soak when I am sick and do that right before I go to sleep as it makes you feel better so you can sleep. I even wash my hair and then if your worried about getting cold, use a blow dryer. You don't need to style your hair, just dry it. It just makes me feel better when I am sick to get my body all warmed up and clean.
When I'm sick (as I am right now! LOL.) I generally take a lukewarm bath . it generally helps a bit to relax... and it can lower the temp a little.
Personal hygiene should not be overlooked simply because your sick!!! I always feel better after bathing when I'm sick. There is absolutely no reason why you should not wash your hair either.
OF COURSE you can have a bath or a shower, or wash your hair. Having the flu doesn't have ANYTHING to do with cold, it's a virus and that's the end of it.
Personally, even if it's tiring, taking a shower always makes me feel better & fresher when I have the flu.
oh yes....you will feel better.
Just don't sit around in a wet towel or with wet hair. You should shower or bathe regardless of whether you're sick or not.
I still shower & yes even wash my hair but I do blow dry it rather than let it dry on its own as I fear getting more sick too
so far I have had no problems......
Of course, shower/bathe. You'll feel better!!
i don't wash my hair because my mom said you will get more sik
Yes, washing your hair may also relieve some of your symptoms, the warm water should loosen congestion and the washing motion on your scalp can massage away tension ans improve circulation that can relieve headaches and stuffiness.
It doesn't matter. I personally would feel better just having a clean body and head.
