Having the right thermometer at home or at work is already considered vital.
But in which part of the body is the most accurate temperature measurement made?
According to health experts for the Wall Street Journal, the forehead, mouth, anus, ears and armpits are the best areas of the body that accurately show the temperature level.
However, the infrared thermometer only works for the forehead and ears.
If you use a digital thermometer, the most accurate measurement is made through the anus and mouth enough to hold it for over 30 seconds.
In the armpits, the thermometer should be held for up to 5 minutes.
Ears can be challenging to measure temperature due to wax.
If you use different thermometers for use from the anus and mouth in your home, it is best not to confuse them in use for hygienic reasons.
