The aqueducts raised the Roman standard of living. Everyone had access to fresh clean water, which was a health benefit. Public baths were made possible for personal cleanliness and homes could have running water.
Roman baths did not, as the question implies make things "worse". Ancient Roman baths were built first in Rome and later became a part of all large Roman cities and in cities Rome conquered that were deemed large enough to have them. Wealthy Romans often had their own private baths. Many Roman cities and conquered ones had indoor plumbing fed by waters carried in from Roman built aqueducts. Public baths were in a sense part of Roman genius and part of Roman culture. Some of the baths were fed by natural spring waters. The baths in some places were so sophisticated that they were heated. The baths were ideal for Roman citizens who could not afford private ones. The baths served not only as a place to keep clean, but were also recreational and a place for people to gather and meet.
Roman gentlemen would visit the baths (or try to) at least two or three times a week. This was to take advantage of the social aspects of the baths. Politics, business and gossip were important to a Romans life. Some, who had no private bath at home went daily for the bathing/cleaning aspect of the public baths.
Nowadays the Roman baths are archaeological sites and tourist attractions.
