Is the new pneumonia fever a face fever?

Fever in novel pneumonia refers mainly to an increase in body temperature, which is not a localized fever alone, but an overall increase in temperature. Of course, there are many patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia who do not even have a fever. The common common way to measure body temperature is underarm or oral temperature, which cannot be measured if only the face is hot. Of course, there are symptoms other than fever, such as dry cough and weakness, and some patients have digestive symptoms, such as diarrhea. Therefore, fever is not only a fever of the face, but also of the whole body. Therefore, it is recommended to go out less during the epidemic, pay attention to wearing masks properly, pay attention to hand disinfection and air disinfection, etc., pay attention to opening windows and ventilation, and exercise properly to improve resistance. You should also pay attention to the presence of symptoms, such as fever, dry cough, and fatigue. The temperature is also taken mainly in the armpit and mouth. If the face is hot and burning, it may be necessary to take the temperature of the armpit or mouth. Content source: Dr. You Lai
