A higher temperature at the temples than at the forehead is not necessarily a fever. Because the temple area of the skin is relatively thin and subcutaneous blood vessels are more abundant, this part of the blood circulation is relatively fast, under normal circumstances, touch up the temple temperature is slightly higher than the forehead, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. To determine whether the fever, and can not be alone through the temple area or forehead local surface temperature to judge, because the human body surface local temperature will be affected by a variety of factors, there are changes. To determine whether the fever needs to be measured through the deep body temperature, commonly used oral temperature, rectal temperature or armpit temperature, different parts of the body temperature is also different, so there are different reference indicators. If you touch the temple temperature is obviously high, while the forehead temperature is normal, it is recommended to use a thermometer to measure the axillary temperature or rectal temperature, if higher than normal value means that there is fever. Patients with fever, should seek medical attention in time to avoid delays.
