What Causes Low Body Temperature?
My temp is 96.7 now. In the last 10 days, it has fluctuated between the lowest of 96.7 to 100.2. I was treated with z pack for a sinus infection, but feel feverish again after being ok for the weekend. I saw an ENT doctor today for my allergies and he thought my sinus infection had gone away, what can this low temp be indicative of? Thank you.

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
IN short: Normal Temp is 98.6 plus or minus 1 degree F'
Explanaton: I think you have measured environment temperature by measuring 96' F. So, next time you measure temperature make sure that you shake it actively.
