Is 100.4 considered a fever?

My body temperature is 100.4 and I feel quite weak. Is this specific temperature considered a fever? My mom says anything above 100 is bad, so I'm a bit worried.

Yes, 100.4 is a fever. Does anyone else get really worried when their temperature goes up even a little? I always start overthinking what it could be.

Based on my own experience, when I hit 100.4, my doctor confirmed it was a fever. He advised rest and hydration. Please consult your own doctor for personalized advice.

Haan, 100.4 ko fever hi mante hain. Try some warm tulsi water, it often helps. But if you have severe body aches or feel very weak, then don't delay, go see a doctor.

My family physician explained that for adults, anything above 100.0-100.4F is considered a low-grade fever. It signifies your body's immune response. It's important to monitor and address underlying causes.

Yeah, 100.4 is a fever. I get it sometimes after a long study session. Usually just a good night's sleep and some water sorts it out. Don't stress.

Yes, puttar, 100.4 toh bukhar hi hai. Thoda garam paani piyo, adrak wali chai. Aur haan, thodi der aankhein band karke aaram karo. Agar zyada lagta hai, toh doctor se puch lo.

For safety, yes, 100.4 should be considered a fever. Even if it's not very high, it's always best to get it checked out by a doctor to rule out anything serious, especially if you have other symptoms.

Don't worry, 100.4 is a fever but it's not extremely high. Just take a paracetamol, get proper rest, and make sure to stay hydrated. If it doesn't improve in a day, then call the doctor.
