"Usually, if the body temperature rises above 37 degrees, a person is considered ill. This is a completely simplistic approach, which is not entirely true. "
According to Sputnik, this statement was made by Russian doctor of medical sciences Andrei Prodeus.
According to him, even if the temperature on the thermometer is above 37 degrees, if a person feels well, there is no need to worry.
"Temperature is not dangerous in itself. "If there are signs of intoxication, if a person feels unwell, even at a normal temperature, then he is more likely to get sick," he said.
According to Andrei Prodeus, the temperature of a normal person varies between 36.2-37.2 degrees.
However, the doctor of medical sciences also warned to consult a doctor in case of regular recurrence of the temperature of 37 degrees.
