ABOUT NORMAL BODY TEMPERATURE &
FEVER
Body temperature can vary from one individual / person to next. It
also varies by location on the body and time of day. Below shows the
statistical normal ranges from di󰀨erent sites. Please keep in mind that
temperatures measured from di󰀨erent sites, even at the same time,
should not be directly compared.
Fever indicates that the body temperature is higher than normal. This
symptom may be caused by infection, overdressing or immunization.
Some people may not experience fever even when they are ill. These
include, but are not limited to, infants younger than 3 months old,
persons with compromised immune systems, persons taking antibiotics,
steroids or antipyretics (aspirin, ibuprofen, acetaminophen), or persons
with certain chronic illnesses.
