Howdy, iam Adam Thomas, I bid you good day, sir/ma’am.
Hey there! Have you ever heard of the term “37 degrees”? Well, it’s actually a way to describe a fever. That’s right - 37 degrees Celsius is equal to 98.6 Fahrenheit, which is considered a fever in adults. So if someone tells you they have a temperature of 37, it means they have a fever! Pretty cool, huh?
Does 37.5 Mean Fever? [Solved]
Well, if your kid’s temperature is higher than 100.4°F (38°C) when taken rectally or 99.5°F (37.5°C) when taken orally, then they’ve got a fever! Yikes! That’s the body’s way of telling you something’s up - it’s trying to fight off whatever bug they’ve got. So keep an eye on it and make sure to get them checked out if it doesn’t go down soon.
No, 37 doesn’t mean fever. It’s just a number - it doesn’t have any special meaning.
