Simply stated, a fever is a rise in your body
temperature. But. this rise, above the usual norm
of 98.6 does not by itself mean that you are
ill. Fever is actually a reaction by the body to
a great many possible conditions. Colds, injuries,
excessive exposure to heat, even some malignan-
cies can affect the portion of your brain that
regulates temperature and cause it to rise.
The important thing to know is, whatever
the cause, a fever is a signal by your body that
there might be something wrong. Always have
an accurate dependable thermometer in the
house. We carry a large selection of oral and
rectal thermometers and will be glad to recom-
mend one.
