If the body raises its temperature to kill bacteria, why is it bad to take a hot shower when you have a fever?
In: 91
To put a bit simple:
body raises temperature to kill it, buuuut our bodies are also not fully functional at those temperatures.
It’s like using a Grenade to kill a spider: you know it will probably work, but you will also damage the whole place.
Since fever can be dangerous for our body, hot shower is a risk of even more temperature that your body cant handle.
TL;DR: Fever will kill the problem AND the body along way, hot shower will help fever kill the second part in some way
