For patients with generalized purulent blister, erythroderma and exudative psoriasis, besides that the water temperature should not be too high to stimulate the skin lesions, it is safer to take a sitting shower for the elderly, the weak and those with some visceral diseases (such as heart disease and hypertension). When bathing, there should be someone to guard or help bathing, so as to avoid accidents.

If the water temperature is too high, it will stimulate the skin lesions and cause adverse effects; if the water temperature is too low, it will not soften the scales and promote the blood circulation of the skin, which is not conducive to the regression of skin lesions. General water temperature should be slightly warm or slightly hot, about 35-39 ℃. You can also choose the water temperature according to the type of skin lesions.
