Bathing at this time can speed up the metabolism, and at the same time can facilitate the body to dissipate heat, so as to alleviate the symptoms of discomfort. However, if there is a high fever, poorer spirit, fatigue, etc., it is not recommended to take a bath. At this time the mental state is poor, in the process of bathing may fall, fainting and other dangerous situations. If the symptoms of cold and flu do not improve or even worsen, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time.
