I asked this question because Filipinos have this notion that taking a shower after being tired is bad. See the following link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pasma

Filipinos, instead, uses a hot wet towel with alcohol to wipe themselves down.

What I really want to know if there are legitimate medical reasons why one should not take a shower.
