For an adult, a temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher is considered a fever. My mother always said to keep a check on it. It is good to rest and drink plenty of fluids, but if it is very high or lasting many days, please see the doctor, beta. They know best.

For an adult, a fever temperature starts at 100.4°F (38°C). It's crucial to pay attention to your body. Just like I regularly check my thyroid levels, you should monitor your temperature. If the fever is persistent, always follow up with your doctor, as it could indicate something requiring attention.

For adults, a fever is usually when your temperature hits 100.4°F (38°C) or goes above that. I've tried many home remedies for mild fevers, like kadha and rest. They can help, but if the temperature is too high or doesn't come down, it's always best to consult a doctor. Be practical.
