A. Hello parents,good evening No .98.3 temeperature is not a fever.any temperature above the 100f is a fever.no need of medication if temperature is below 100f.always measure temperature in armtips only.

A. When you take the temperature in the under arm or armpit then you are meant to add 1° to it so right now with 98.3 you can make it to 99.3 is going to be right so I’m going to advise you to give paracetamol regarding that issue that’s there
