are you serious? Common sense says... if it sounds stupid, it is stupid.
I have suffered from asthma since I was 7 years old (now 39) when my rescue inhaler is not adequate, I get into a extremely hot bath, soak, open up my lungs, enjoy the soothing moisturizing water vapors and breathe deep. I've also taken extremely hot vapor showers to open and moisturize my lungs. This is always recommended to me by my doctors. My 3 month old son had bronchitis and the same was recommended by his pediatrician.
I wonder why?

Taking a bath at any time cannot harm your lungs (unless all this water gets into your lungs)

No it is fine to take a bath before bed. I even found that when you have a cold or blocked sinuses that it gives you some relieve from it and you fall a sleep faster.

Anytime is OK to take a bath or shower. This does not affect your lungs.

No, if that's the case a lot of people will have severe lung problems.

That is not true at all. It doesn't matter when you take a bath. Just don't swallow nasty dirty water and you will be fine. You won't die if you swallow the water either but it won't taste to good.

Your lungs can't tell time. That's just a myth. Take a shower whenever you feel like it.

That's an old wives tale. Take bath whenever you want.
