Namaste, iam Oscar Webb, Good luck today!
Ah man, I’m not feeling so hot. I’ve got a low grade fever and it’s really dragging me down. Ugh, I just want to curl up in bed and sleep it off. But that’s not an option right now - gotta power through! Hopefully this fever will break soon; in the meantime, I’ll just have to take it easy and keep my fingers crossed.
What Is A Low-Grade Fever? [Solved]
If your temperature is hovering around 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, you may have a low-grade fever. Don’t panic though - it’s not necessarily something that needs to be treated with medication. According to Dr., if the temp isn’t too high, you can usually just ride it out and let your body do its thing.
Definition: A low grade fever is a body temperature that is slightly elevated above normal, usually between 100-102°F (37.8-38.9°C).
Causes: Low grade fevers can be caused by a variety of illnesses, including the common cold, flu, and other viral infections.
Symptoms: In addition to an elevated body temperature, other symptoms may include chills, fatigue, headache, and muscle aches.
Treatment: Generally speaking, low grade fevers do not require medical treatment and can be managed with rest and over-the-counter medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen to reduce discomfort and fever symptoms if necessary.
Complications: If the fever persists for more than three days or is accompanied by severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing or confusion it may be necessary to seek medical attention in order to rule out more serious underlying conditions such as pneumonia or meningitis
Low grade fever is when your body temperature is slightly elevated, usually between 99-100.5 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s not a huge cause for concern, but it can be a sign of an underlying issue. If you’re feeling under the weather and have a low grade fever, it’s best to get checked out by your doctor just in case. Don’t wait too long though - better safe than sorry!
