Is 99.4 a fever?
My body feels quite warm and I have a sore throat. Just checked my temperature, and it's 99.4. Is this considered a fever?

Bro, 99.4 is just normal body heat, especially if you have been sitting in a warm room or studying too much. I get this all the time before exams due to stress. Just drink some cold water and chill.

Technically, 99.4 is a borderline temperature, not a true fever. We usually don't recommend any paracetamol or medication for this unless you have severe body aches. Just monitor it and stay hydrated.

I had 99.4 last week along with a slight tickle in my throat. I panicked thinking it was viral, but my doc said it is not a clinical fever until it touches 100.4. It went away naturally in two days just with warm water gargles.

99.4 is very mild ho na, don't worry about it. Just have a warm cup of milk or light khichdi and take rest. Your body is probably just tired.

Your body temperature naturally spikes after a heavy lifting session or high-intensity cardio. 99.4 is just post-workout metabolic heat. Focus on your recovery sleep and eat a balanced meal, no need to worry.

Honestly, my temperature often touches 99.4 during my PMS days and it is completely normal. Our bodies just run a bit warm sometimes. Just wear loose clothes, put on the fan, and rest for a bit.
