Does your child have a fever?
The first thing to know about your child’s normal body temperature: normal pediatric body temperature is slightly higher than that of adults. The general axillary temperature is 36~37.3℃, while the child’s body temperature slightly increases in the afternoon, after eating, activity, crying or when the environmental temperature rises as a physiological fluctuation.
