What Temperature Is a Fever
A fever is typically defined when the body temperature rises above 38 degrees Celsius (100.4 degrees Fahrenheit). In adults, this indicates the body's natural response to infection or inflammation. It's crucial to monitor symptoms since what temperature is a fever can vary slightly by individual and age group.
