The temperature of a healthy person is also influenced by the
following factors:
• The person's individual metabolism.
• Age (body temperature is higher in babies and small children and
falls with increasing age. Greater temperature fluctuations occur
faster and more often in children).
• Clothing.
• The outside temperature.
• The time of day (body temperature is lower in the morning and
increases during the day towards evening).
• Preceding physical and, to a lesser extent, mental activity.
Tip:
Taking the temperature gives a measurement that provides in-
formation about a person's current body temperature. If you are
uncertain about interpreting the results or if the result is abnormal
(e.g. fever), you should consult your doctor. This also applies in the
case of slight temperature changes if there are other symptoms of
illness such as agitation, severe sweating, flushed skin, fast pulse
rate, tendency to collapse etc.
