Mercury thermometer is best

every type of thermometer is good in its own way of use . but i prefer clinical thermometers .

Hello, For the most accurate and reliable body temperature, a traditional Clinical (Mercury) Thermometer is always the best choice and the gold standard in medical accuracy, as it gives the exact core body temperature without any electronic error. The accurate priority order: Best Choice: Clinical (Mercury) Thermometer – Most accurate and highly dependable. Second Best: Digital Thermometer – Reliable alternative for everyday use. Third / Least Accurate: Infrared / Biometric Thermometers – They measure skin surface temperature, which easily fluctuates due to room temperature, distance, or sweat. Tips for Accurate Reading: Avoid cold or hot drinks right before taking the reading. Keep the thermometer in place properly for full measurement. Naturopathic Care During Fever: Fever is the body’s natural defence fighting infection. Drink adequate lukewarm water, coconut water, and take light, easy-to-digest food with sufficient rest. If fever continues above 101°F or is accompanied by chills and weakness, please feel free to consult for proper evaluation. Stay well, Dr. Hetal Pathak Naturopath Physician & Holistic Health Specialist
