4. Very Late at Night
Why to avoid it: Body temperature naturally drops at night to prepare for sleep. Bathing in cold water late at night can cause a temperature shock, especially in elderly individuals, possibly affecting heart function and circulation.
Tip: If you must bathe at night, keep the water warm and the bathroom temperature comfortable.
5. In Very Cold or Very Hot Water
Why to avoid it: Extreme temperatures stress your circulatory system. Hot water can cause blood vessels to dilate too much, leading to dizziness or fainting. Cold water can cause sudden constriction, spiking blood pressure and increasing stroke risk.
Tip: Use lukewarm water—especially if you’re older or have heart or blood pressure issues.
More Tips to Bathe Safely:
Hydrate before bathing.
Keep the bathroom warm to prevent body temperature shock.
Don’t lock the door if you’re alone and unwell.
Sit down if you feel weak or lightheaded.
