What is a fever in fahrenheit?
I have an old thermometer that measures in Fahrenheit, and I'm a bit confused when someone tells me temperatures in Celsius. What temperature in Fahrenheit is considered a fever? Just need to convert correctly.

Normally 98.6 is regular, but if it crosses 100 degrees then it is a proper fever, ho na. Usually we wait till 99 to see if it goes down on its own, but touch wood mostly it is nothing. Just take rest and check again after some time.

Clinically, a body temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or above is considered a fever. While minor fluctuations are normal, it is always best to consult a professional if the temperature stays high or is accompanied by other symptoms. Self-diagnosis sometimes causes unnecessary panic, so let a doctor guide you.

Bhaiya, agar check karne par 100 ke upar dikhata hai toh samajhiye bukhar hai. Aap bilkul chinta mat kijiye, thoda garm paani pijiye aur sharir ko aaram dijiye. Bhagwan sab theek karenge, thoda dhyan rakhiyega apna.

I am not very sure about this, but I read that 99 degrees is also slightly high for some people. Is 99.5 considered a fever too, or is it just normal tiredness? If anyone has faced this please let me know, I am a bit confused.

Yes, absolutely correct that 100.4°F is the standard medical threshold for fever. Just make sure to use a clean digital thermometer under the armpit or tongue for the most accurate reading.
