Here in the UK a temperature is measured in Centigrade, the normal being 37*c. If the temp goes from this, up to 37.5*c then this would be classed as a low grade fever. If it reached 40*c then this would be considered to be severe. Hope this helps.

The low fever, the fever which is mild.

Actually the fever is Anything that is 99.5 or higher. That is what my doctor said and they consider 99.5 - 101.9 a low grade fever.

1 degree over 98.6 is "low grade fever", if you get into the 100's your sick.
