Answer #1

Some people just have lower ones then others it isnt necicaerally bad. My dad is an emergency doctor adn he gets people in that have a low temperture … naturally. its common adn nohting to worry about!!! Unless it is natrually higher then 97.6 such as 98.6. Then you should contact a dotcor

Answer #2

Answer #3

Funadvice is never a substitute for a doctor. However, I wouldn’t worry, you’re barely a degree off, and have no reason to be so worried. If it drops lower, or gets really high, then I would contact a medical professional. Most likely your body has finally broken its fever caused by your illness and is adjusting still to return to normal.

Answer #4

As above, you’re only one degree below norm, and i was like that with the flu a few weeks ago… still here by the way. But if you are worried then see your doctor.

Get better soon.
