people
- What is ear temperature -
In order to make a correct judgement on the fever
condition, it is important to learn the normal temperatures
of family members by measuring their temperatures
when they are in good physical conditions.
Body temperature differs by the place it is measured (in the
ear, in the mouth, or under the arm).
A study conducted by OMRON indicates that many people
show higher temperature in the ear.
Exceptions: some people show lower temperature when measured in the
ear, and for some the temperature difference between the ear and the arm
is more than 1°C (1.8°F).
Please understand the normal temperature differences
between the one measured in the ear and the one under
the arm and use as a guide for temperature reading of a
suspected fever.
