Misunderstanding 1: "Cupping and bathing are indispensable."

Many people go to take a bath immediately after cupping, which is called "cupping and bathing, one is indispensable." It is indeed very comfortable to take a warm bath after cupping, but it is wrong to take a bath immediately after cupping.
