Is There Any Connection With Head Bath And Common Cold?

My name is R Chandran and 76 years old. I had an angioplasty in 2005 and take statins regularly. I also have a minor lung problem and I take small doses of prednisilone and immuno suppressors. I have been taking head bath twice a day for the past 50 years or so. Is there any connection with head bath and common cold, as I get this common cold often.

Thank you for asking!
Usually bathings may cause cold if the environment is rough and cold.But immune status compromise is more likely in your case as you are of geriatric age and on immunosuppressants. That makes it more likely.
Take care
