Patient's question:

What is the normal body temperature of children. Normal

Doctor's answer:

Measuring body temperature generally involves three common sites: the mouth, armpit, and rectum:
Normal body temperature ranges from 36.5℃ to 37.5℃ at the rectum;
From 36.2℃ to 37.3℃ at the mouth;
From 35.9℃ to 37.2℃ at the armpit.
After measurement, if the temperature exceeds the normal range by more than 0.5℃, it is considered a fever. A low-grade fever is when the temperature is below 38℃; a high fever is when the temperature exceeds 39℃.
