it’s because of cold water quickly shrinking the smaller blood vessels in the body which increases cardiovascular pressure temporarily. Solution: pre-warm your shower.

In the Fleming novels, James Bond always begins the day with a "scalding hot" shower, as hot as he can stand it, followed by an "ice cold" shower, as cold as he can get it.

I thought that remedy was for hangovers in the novel I read (can't remember which one), and he would repeat the cycle
