A member asked:

Is 100.5 a low grade fever ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Technically speaking, temperatures in the 100's are low-grade fevers. The next question is, "Is there any reason to worry about a low grade fever in a particular person?" The answer depends on the whole story, not just his or her temperature.
