Ever since i was a kid, my temperature has always been between 98.9-100f. why do i run higher? i've never met anyone who has temperatures like me?

The temperature of the deep tissues of the body (core temperature) remains almost constant, within 1 degree F range. The average normal core temperature ranges between 98.0 and 98.6 degree F when measured orally. However, core temp. in many active children and a few normal adults runs between 99 and 101 degree F.
