Bathing can remove sweat, dirt and grease, relieve fatigue, relax tendons and promote blood circulation, improve sleep, improve skin's metabolic function and disease resistance, and soak in warm water can treat some diseases. The temperature of hot water bath should not be too high, and warm water of 35 ~ 40℃ is generally suitable. The number of times of washing should not be too much, because too many times will wash off all the oil normally secreted on the skin surface and the protective flora normally parasitic on the skin surface, which will easily cause skin itching and other diseases, and the skin's resistance will be weakened, but it will easily get sick.
1, take a bath several times a week.
In summer, the human body is vigorous and perspires a lot, so you should wash it once a day. The weather is not hot in winter, spring and autumn, and the number of baths can vary from person to person. Those who are obese and have exuberant sebaceous glands can appropriately increase the number of baths. The secretion of sebaceous glands in the elderly is reduced, and the number of baths can be appropriately reduced.
2. What is the most suitable temperature for bathing?
The temperature of the bath water should be close to the body temperature, that is, 35 ~ 37℃. When the water temperature is too high, the blood vessels in the epidermis of the whole body dilate, and the blood flow in the heart and brain decreases, resulting in hypoxia. When pregnant women take a bath, the water temperature should not be too high to prevent fetal hypoxia and affect fetal development. Take a cold bath in summer. If the bath water is too cold, the skin pores will suddenly close, the blood vessels will contract sharply, and the heat in the body will not be emitted. Especially on hot nights, people often feel weak limbs, shoulder and knee pain and abdominal pain after taking a cold bath, and even become the inducing factors of arthritis and chronic gastrointestinal diseases. In summer, the water temperature of a cold bath is generally not lower than 10℃.
3. What is the best time to take a bath?
No matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, the bath time should not be too long, and the bath time should be 15 ~ 30 minutes each time to prevent hypoxia and ischemia of heart and brain.
Step 4 use soap appropriately
In daily life, people use four kinds of soap: hard soap, which contains more alkali, like laundry soap; Soft soap, with alkali content below 25%, like all kinds of soaps; Fatty soap, alkali-free; Medicinal soap. These four kinds of soaps have different effects and are suitable for different people. Hard soap is rich in foam and strong in detergency, which is suitable for people with greasy skin; Soft soap and fat soap are suitable for dry skin and babies; Different types of medicated soaps have disinfection and bacteriostatic effects, and have certain curative effects on patients with dermatoses. For example, middle-aged and elderly people often itch because of their low skin moisture content, so it is advisable to use medicated soap containing carbolic acid; People with greasy skin and acne can use sulfur-containing medicated soap; Boric acid soap has thin and tender skin and is suitable for babies.
Correct bathing sequence
Bathing should be carried out in an orderly manner. Wash your face first, then wash your hair, and then take a bath.
When you enter the shower room, when the hot water is turned on, it will produce hot air, and the pores of the human body will expand when heated. Therefore, if you don't wash your face first at this time, you will sneak into the pores when the pore door is opened. Over time, your pores will be squeezed bigger and bigger by these dirty things, occupying the territory that should not belong to them, and more and more acne will appear on your face, but don't believe what others say to you, "youthful and beautiful acne." If you wash your hair after taking a shower, the grease on your head will make your back "polluted" again, so it is better to wash it from top to bottom.
Matters needing attention in bathing for women
1, bathing in cold water is harmful.
The doctor said that when taking a cold bath, because the water temperature is too low, the human body will feel cold and produce a series of stress reactions, such as rapid heartbeat, high blood pressure, muscle contraction and nervous tension. It can not only eliminate fatigue, but also easily cause colds and should be avoided as much as possible. Because of its special physiological reasons, especially when female friends are in menstruation, lactation and pregnancy, the stimulation of cold water will cause endocrine disorders, amenorrhea and abdominal pain, and many bacteria will also enter the vagina to cause gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, which will seriously affect women's future pregnancy and health.
In this crisp autumn day, cold water is less irritating to the human body, so it is most appropriate to start cold water bath exercise at this time ... For those female friends with poor physical fitness at that time, it is even more impossible to take a bath with cold water, otherwise their resistance will be poor, and cold stimulation will cause diseases such as colds and fever. Dr. Yao also specially reminded that due to the great climate change in some areas this year, the flu will be advanced this year, and it is not wise for female friends to take a cold bath as soon as possible. But you can insist on washing your face with cold water for a long time, promote blood circulation, prevent colds and rhinitis, and make your skin more shiny and elastic.
Advocate washing your face with cold water for a long time

But you can insist on washing your face with cold water for a long time, promote blood circulation, prevent colds and rhinitis, and make your skin more shiny and elastic.
2. It is not advisable to take a bath when blood pressure is too low.
Because the high water temperature in the bath can dilate people's blood vessels, people with low blood pressure are prone to insufficient blood supply to the brain and collapse.
It is not advisable to take a bath after drinking.
Alcohol can inhibit liver function and hinder the release of glycogen. When taking a bath, the glucose consumption in the human body will increase. If you take a bath after drinking, your blood sugar can't be replenished in time, and you are prone to dizziness, general weakness, and even hypoglycemia coma in severe cases.
4. It is not advisable to take a bath after a full meal.
Taking a bath after a full meal, the blood vessels on the skin surface of the whole body are stimulated by hot water to expand, more blood flows to the body surface, and the blood supply in the abdominal cavity is relatively reduced, which will affect digestion and absorption, cause hypoglycemia, and even collapse and faint.
5. It is not advisable to take a bath immediately after delivery.
No matter after physical or mental work, you should take a rest before taking a bath, otherwise it will easily lead to insufficient blood supply to the heart and brain and even fainting.
6. It is not advisable to take a bath when you have a fever.
When the body temperature rises to 38℃, the body's heat consumption can increase by 20%, and the body is weak. Taking a bath at this time is prone to accidents.
7. Don't go to bed just because you took a shower.
It is best to take a bath two hours before going to bed. Sleep often comes after the body temperature drops. A hot bath will raise the body temperature and delay the release of "sleep hormones" from the brain. If you can only take a bath before going to bed one day, you can use a wet towel to cold compress your forehead for 5 minutes after bathing, so that your body temperature can drop to normal level and you can fall asleep as soon as possible.
8, menstrual period should not take a bath.
The endometrium falls off during menstrual period, leaving a wound in the uterine cavity; Cervical mucus is washed away by menstrual blood, and the cervical mouth is slightly opened; There is menstrual blood in vagina, which is a good culture medium for bacteria. The above causes the local protective barrier function of reproductive tract to be temporarily destroyed, and then the whole body resistance decreases during menstruation. When taking a bath, sewage and bacteria in the vagina may go up into the uterine cavity through the cervical canal and cause infection, so it should be banned.
9. The water temperature should not be too high.
Too high water temperature can easily destroy the oil on the skin surface, lead to telangiectasia and aggravate the dryness of the skin. At the same time, it will also increase the burden on the heart, because the blood vessels of the whole body skin are obviously expanded, so that a large amount of blood flows to the whole body skin, which will make the heart ischemic and hypoxic. Especially for the elderly with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and hypertension, high water temperature will increase blood pressure, increase heart rate, increase the burden of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and increase blood viscosity.
Suggestion: Water temperature is 24℃ to 29℃.
