The answer would be: No use of bubble bath liquids or salts

Infection of UTI happens when bacteria enter the urethra. Long exposure to water in a bath would increase the risk. Using bubble bath liquid or salts can alter the pH and further increase the risk of infection. the liquid and salts might also cause an allergic reaction as it contains many ingredients.
