36.4 degrees is fine. In fact, any temperature within 36-37 is perfectly healthy. If you get temperatures of <35 or >37.5 degrees it may be cause for concern. A fever of 39.5 degrees landed me in hospital once, but wasn't fatal.

Just remember, if your child's been doing any running around (not that they would if they were really sick) or drinking hot drinks whilst sitting in front of a fire, you should wait for them to rest somewhere away from the fire for a few minutes before taking a reading.

How do you increase your body temperature?

Thanks. I was not specific enough in my question. If one has a consistently low body temp even while living an active life and having healthy eating habits. Is there an ongoing remedy that might raise the body's temp at rest in normal room temperature. (Whoops - Sorry I don't know) You may have a condition called Wilson's Low Temperature Syndrome. My new doctor just diagnosed me with it. I am very physically active and have very healthy eating habits. I have had a consistently low temperature (often in the low 97's, sometimes in the 96 range) for over ten years. Everytime I asked my doctors about it they said there was nothing wrong. Even if I had a fever with chills and flu symptoms, my temp was still below 98.6 degrees! I was fine for a long time, then my skin started getting really dry, eyebrows started thinning, muscle cramps, waking up several times a night, anxiety/depression swings, carpal tunnel syndrome (with no apparent reason) and sudden, unusual weight gain (20 pounds in a month!) in spite of regular physical activity, and food diaries and counting calories. Low Temperature Syndrome is indicative of thyroid system problems and an unstable T3 count. The "regular" TSH screenings showed there was no thyroid problem, I had to have the T3 test. Apparently, thyroid tests don't always reveal thyroid problems. My doctor put me on Armour Thyroid which is natural, because it has both T3 and T4. Within six weeks my carpal tunnel symptoms are mostly gone, and I feel more energetic. My mood has definitely improved. My temperature is now upper 97's and low 98's. There's a website devoted to Low Temperature Syndrome.
