A. it is advisable to go for digital thermometer when you take the temperature in the armpit and if it is hundred or more then only have to consider it as fever and give paracetamol

A. Hello ma’am I would advise you to go for the ear one as that is really accurate and exact when it comes to temperature. The mercury ones are not really good you can otherwise go for the battery operated or thermometer those are easily available in the market these days so either go for that or the year one because I believe they give an accurate temperature as compare to the mercury one
