What is a cold sitz bath?

A sitz bath (also called a hip bath) is a type of bath in which only the hips and buttocks are soaked in water or saline solution. Its name comes from the German verb "sitzen," meaning "to sit."

The area should be carefully patted dry and, if necessary, clean dressings should be applied.

The bath should be filled with 3-4 in (8-10cm) of water. For most conditions, nothing else should be added (no bubble bath or oil).

A hot bath helps a cold because the steam loosens up the muck in your throat

because people are to cheap to pay to turn on the heater. and so people will take faster showers and wont waste water
