Normal temperature range
Temperature is the temperature inside the organism. Normal human axillary temperature is 36 ~ 37 degrees, oral temperature 0.2 ~0.4 degrees higher than the axilla, rectum temperature than oral temperature high of 0.3 to 0.5 degrees.
In general, measurement of body temperature to oral temperatures prevail. If the use of oral measurement, the measurement results can be used as the body temperature of the human body. If the armpit, requires the measurement results will be plus 0.2 to 0.4 degrees.
Love reminder : recommendations for the use of electronic thermometer in oral measurement!

2: the axillary method is not easy to cross infection, is the most commonly used method of measuring body temperature, dry axillary sweat, put the thermometer in the axillary fossa with top, upper half thermometer clamp, enjoin patient cannot touch, 10 minutes after the reading, the normal value for the 36~37 ℃.
3: Anal measurement : used for coma patients or children. The patient supine, the anus table head with oil lubrication, slowly into the anus, anal scale up the 1/2 far, placed 3 minutes after reading, normal values for 36.5~37.7 ℃.

Under physiological circumstances, morning and afternoon sports and slightly lower, after eating or slightly higher . Older body temperature slightly lower, women during menstruation or pregnancy slightly higher.
