Can Taking Shower During Sickness Cause Meningitis?

My age is 22 im a female college student. I have been sick for four days now an after i took a shower last night i noticed all over my legs were red an blotchy but after 10 min it went away. Could it be meningitis? I went to the clinic at school an they told me i just had a common cold.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and let me tell you that meningitis is a inflammation of brain part and this commonly happened due to infection either because of bacteria or virus or without unknown cause and not because of taking bath, you are under the wrong impression, forget this, hope this information helps you, have a nice day.
