A member asked:

Hello sir my mothers body temperature feel normal , but the thermometer shows temp.of 101.3. she has body ache. what do these symptoms indicate?

see your doctor: Or other health care provider. Nobody can tell just from what you gave, but a 101.3 temperature in an older adult may be serious. Body aches are associated with influenza and virtually every other viral infection, ranging from mild and benign ones, to serious ones. Asking online questions is not the answer, her seeing a physician for a full examination is.
