Question 1

my 6 month old has had a fever since this morning his temperature is 38 degrees celsius. should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

Bring him to Peds: He needs an evaluation. Bring him to your doctor or to er for an evaluation, high fever in infant during their first year is concerning for sepsis/uti. It might be also some viral illness, but it&#x27;s better to check in your peds office.

Question 2

i was diagnosed with covid a week ago. fever lasted only 3 days and all seemed okay until today, when temperature of 37.5 degree celsius returned. please tell me is this covid related and what to do? i took azythromicin for 6 days?

Accepted Answer

: The "37.5 Celsius" tep is probably not related to COVID-19.  There are multiple infectious agents which can cause temperature elevations.  Viral pathogens do not respond to Azithromycin.

Question 3

is 37.1 celsius body temperature at night considered a low grade fever or is it normal?

Accepted Answer

Subjective fever: Everybody is a little bit different -and it would be important to know the temperatures you used to have before this question came up. I think that 'no' this isn't a fever, but I don't know your basal metabolic rate. There is a natural rhythm of the body- temps go up and down, and usually at night the body is cooler than during the day. If you FEEL hot, then it's possible u have a low grade fever.

Question 4

my baby boy is 3 mths and has fever of100 degree celsius. i gave him panadol (acetaminophen) and temperature isn't returning to normal. please suggest some remedies.

Accepted Answer

Panadol (acetaminophen) is fine: luke warm baths help too.100 degrees is not high but since your baby is only 3 months look for other signs--irritability,lethargy.poor feeding--if he has these have him checked by a doctor.

Question 5

my 1 year old son has a temperature of 38.5 degrees celcius but doesnt seem to bother him and he is playing as normal.  do i need to worry and take him to the hospital, or is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Playing = reassuring: If a parent is not sure when to take a 1 year-old to the doctor, he or she can call the doctor's office. Some doctors have their patients come in on the first couple of sick days, but it depends on the experience of the parents and on what the child is doing. A baby too sleepy, too fussy, or otherwise acting strangely, especially even when temperature is not very high, means an exam is needed.

Question 6

hi, my 5 week old baby has a temperature of 37 degrees celcius with a slight cough, is this normal or does she need treatment?

Accepted Answer

NORMAL TEMP: The cited temperature is normal. A cough at that age is usually due to exposure to dust/fumes/perfume/ or other such irritants in the air of their environment.Nasal washout with saline drops &amp; suction helps most. Removing any obvious airborne irritants also helps.

Question 7

is 36.0 celsius a fever?

Accepted Answer

No: 37 Celsius is the normal body temperature. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Question 8

is a temperature of 99.5 a fever?

Accepted Answer

Technically yes, but: Unless a person is suspected or known to be having an illness, and medical staff are watching for a rising temperature, we might not call 99.5 F a fever. Everybody has a temperature, just like every town in America has a temperature today. When we say fever, we usually mean an abnormally increased temperature which suggests we should look for a cause... unless a suspected cause is really minor.

Question 9

feels like a fever but no temperature?

Accepted Answer

PRODROME: At the BEGINING of an infection your body may sense an internal change in temperature, muscle aches and joint aches. Prior to spiking a fever. This PRODROME is usually as the body is trying to fight off the infection by producing interferon and Interluken.

Question 10

what temperature is a fever dangerous?

Accepted Answer

Fever can be quite..: High and still be a normal reaction to an infxn. If by dangerous you mean malignant hyperthermia, this is generally not triggered by infection. Rather it most often follows anesthesia or neuromuscular blocker, and emerging data suggests predisposition related to mutations in many genes. For infxn-related fever, tylenol/motrin and supportive care. Should resolve w/ rx of infxn. If concerns, call dr.
