How can u tell if u have a fever?

When you have a fever, you'll feel completely drained and your forehead will feel hot. I always put a cold, wet cloth on my children's foreheads and give them warm tulsi-ginger tea to soothe the shivering. It really helps bring the temperature down comfortably, but if it stays high for more than two days, please visit a clinic.

Just use a digital thermometer under your tongue for a minute. If it's above 99°F, you definitely have a mild fever.

Usually, your forehead and neck will feel warm to the touch, and you might feel a bit shivery or weak. My mother always says to take rest and drink warm water when this happens, which helps comfort the body. However, if the thermometer shows a high reading, it is always best to visit your family doctor for proper advice.

Do your eyes also feel really hot and heavy when you are getting a fever? I am feeling so weak and warm today, but I am too scared to look at the thermometer. Has anyone else felt this weird shivering even under a thick blanket, or is it just my anxiety making it worse?

Haan na, body pain and hot eyes are the first clear signs that a fever is coming. You can check with a normal digital thermometer at home, anything above 99 degrees is usually a mild fever. Just take rest and if it doesn't go down in a day, then please see a doctor, okay?

A fever is medically defined as a body temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher, which is best measured using a digital thermometer rather than just guessing. You will likely experience symptoms like sweating, shivering, headache, and muscle aches. If the fever is persistent or accompanied by a severe sore throat or breathing difficulty, consult a doctor immediately.
