Forehead temperature
Ear temperature
Oral temperature
Rectal temperature
Note:
• Temperatures measured with different thermometers should never be compared with one
another.
• Tell your doctor what type of thermometer you used to take your temperature and on what
part of the body. Also bear this in mind while you are monitoring yourself.
Holding the thermometer for too long in the hand before taking a measurement can
cause the device to warm up. This means the measurement could be incorrect.
Influences On Body Temperature
• A person's individual metabolism
• Age
Body temperature is higher in babies and toddlers than in adults. Greater temperature
fluctuations occur faster and more often in children. Normal body temperature decreases
with age.
