Is 39 celsius a fever?

I'm not feeling well at all, body pains and feeling really warm. Just checked my temperature and it's 39 degrees Celsius. Is 39 celsius a fever? Should I be taking medicine?

Yes, 39 Celsius is a high fever (around 102.2 Fahrenheit). Since I have PCOS, I try to be extra careful with high fevers as they affect my energy terribly. I would recommend seeing a doctor soon.

Yes, this is a high fever indeed. Along with the doctor's medicine, you can do cold water sponging on your forehead and hands to help cool down. Stay in a airy room and drink coconut water.

Yes, it is a high fever. I have 39 C right now and I am shivering under two blankets but still feel cold. Does anyone else get these severe chills with this temperature?

Yes, 39 C is a high fever, buddy. Don't stress too much, just call your doctor, get the right prescription, and binge-watch your favorite show in bed today.

Yes, 39 C is a pretty high fever. In my personal experience, whenever I hit 39, I just contact my doctor immediately because it makes me too weak to stand.

Haan ji, 39 Celsius toh bada fever hai. Aap bilkul laparwahi mat kijiye, turant doctor sahab ke paas jaiye aur dawai lijiye. Khub sara paani pijiye taaki kamzori na aaye.
