Hello doctors! is there an overall rule for how long is too long to take a hot or warm shower? is ten minutes too short a period of time? is thirty minutes too long? trying to find a match between relaxation/comfort and not drying out the skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Relax: Thereis no rule, at you age, about how long to take hot bath or shower. Stay as long as you like. You can reduce length of time if your skin dries out. Skin can always be moistened with lotion. It,s up to you.
