The fever is a defense mechanism with which our body defends itself or faces the possible infections that in some moment of the life we could suffer. It produces an increase in body temperature above normal. Normal body temperature can range between 35º C or 37º C, depending on each person, age, as well as the time of day when we measure body temperature.

On the other hand, we must bear in mind that body temperature in the evenings and at night is usually higher than in the morning. While, in the case of children, the normal temperature is usually between 36 º C and 37 º C and as it happens in adults it will depend on each child and where we have taken the temperature if it is axillary, in the groin, in the mouth or in the rectum.
