How to check if u have a fever?

Hey, don't stress too much about it! Just touch the back of your hand to your forehead or neck to feel if it's unusually warm. If you are shivering or your eyes feel heavy, just take some rest and drink warm water.

Honestly, I can never tell if I have a fever or if I'm just dying of sleep deprivation. If your eyes burn and your bones ache like you got hit by a truck, you probably have a fever. Best to just buy a cheap thermometer from the local chemist.

Please don't ignore it if you feel unusually warm or have chills. I once ignored a low-grade fever thinking it was just tiredness, and it turned into a severe infection. Buy a digital thermometer and check properly, and see a doctor if it stays high.

Sometimes my hormonal issues cause hot flashes which make me feel feverish when I actually don't have one. It can be quite confusing. I suggest using a clean thermometer and resting well rather than guessing based on body warmth.

Whenever I suspect a fever, I usually ask someone else in my house to feel my forehead compared to theirs. That physical touch usually helps me gauge it before I look for a thermometer. That's just what works for me at home.

In our days, our mothers just touched our necks and knew the exact temperature! Now my joints ache so much anyway that it's hard to tell. Just put a thermometer in your mouth for a minute, it's the only real way.
