Confused. when i visit dr they check ear temp and it has sometimes been 99.7or less. i will check oral with digital and its normal. what is correct?

Both: Your temp varies throughout the day. And, if you take an ear temp, an oral temp, an axillary temp, and a rectal temp all at the same time, there will be some variation at any given moment. Remember the 98.6 temp we know as "normal" is actually just an average of a wide range of normals. Don't sweat it. Good luck.
