Anyone with medical knowledge... Do I have a fever?!
Question: Anyone with medical knowledge... Do I have a fever.?
My normal body temperature when I'm not sick is 97.4. I hit my head and got a concussion yesterday and the doctor told me to go to the hospital if I develop a fever. My temperature right now is 98.1, but I'm not sure if that means I have a fever since it's still so low. What do you guys think.? Thanks!Health Question & Answer
Answers:
No that would not be considered a fever. If you start to run a temp of 99 or above you should go to the hospital. It would not matter what your normal temp is, all they are making sure of is that you do not develop a temp high enough to cause brain damage. Health Question & Answer
