Is a cold water shower bad for the bones?

I think that it is good for the skin, to keep it tight and young. I have never heard that it is bad for the bones, the first thing that came in my mind when I read your post is the winter swimmers. It is said that winter swimmers stay healthy for longer, they don't get sich easily, don't feel the cold that much and they look younger. So I have cold water as a positive thing in my mind, I can't see why showering with cold water could cause problems. I can't have a clod shower during winter, I feel so cold!

Oh no I couldn't handle a cold shower, too much of a shock to the system I think, I have heard it is good but I think if it doesn't feel good then it isn't good, just my opinion.

Thats strange my mom told me that a cold shower is good for you. Even though I dont like to take cold showers I will take a hot shower in the middle of the summer I find it very relaxing. Even though I heard that hot showers actually make you age faster and cold showers are good for your body. But I only take cold showers if the boilers messed up and there is no hot water running.

I love having shower with cold water especially when it is so hot.Some oldies says that it is bad but I don't think so.I still like to take a bath with cold water.I guess we should consult an expert about this.

i thought so, but my friend, he is a nurse, said that is wrong. many people have got wrong perception about cold water. they think it may cause influenza and bad for bone, but that is not right. the rigth cause is less calcium and fosfor in our bone. that si very dangerous for our bone

Do not know about the bones but yes it is very refreshing. It depends from person to person and of course the weather in your place.

I don't know about it being bad for your bones I never heard that before but I take a cold shower at least once a day during the summer months. When it is over a hundred degrees outside sometimes a cold shower can be your best friend. What I do know is that the cold water is actually really good for your pores. If you start out by taking a warm shower to open you pores and wash then rinse yourself with cold water the cold water closes your pores up making them less noticeable and making you less prone to ingrown hairs and pimples.
