Anal table temperature measurement minus 5℃ is incorrect. Normal rectal anal temperature is 36.5℃-37.7℃, 0.3℃-0.5℃ higher than the oral temperature.

Armpit temperature is 36℃-37℃, 0.3℃-0.5℃ lower than the oral temperature. Body temperature is not fixed, can be age, day and night, sex and mood changes and normal fluctuations. In

general, the temperature of newborns is not fixed, vulnerable to environmental influences, and the elderly temperature is generally slightly higher than normal. The elderly temperature is lower than normal, mental stress and other factors, may appear transient temperature increase.

If the patient anal temperature rises, it is recommended that the patient go to the local regular anorectal department for treatment.
