Is 100 fahrenheit fever?
I'm not feeling well, and my temperature is 100°F. My wife says it's just a slight elevation, but I'm quite uncomfortable. Is 100 Fahrenheit a fever?

Yes, 100F is considered a low-grade fever.

At Apollo, my doctor always says if it's over 99.5F then it's technically a fever. For 100F, they usually recommend rest and watching for other symptoms. Best to call your general physician and clarify.

Yes, it is a mild fever. When my body temperature rises, I focus on light, easy-to-digest vegetarian food like khichdi and fresh fruit juices. Avoid anything heavy or oily for now.

Even a mild fever like 100F can sometimes indicate something more. Once I had a persistent low fever that turned out to be dengue. Please don't ignore it and get it checked by a doctor if it doesn't go down.

Oh, 100F? I had that last week and felt so drained, but everyone said it's nothing major. Did you also feel very tired or just warm? I always worry about these things. Hope you are doing okay.
