Answer 9

That's VERY low. Has she just taken a cold bath/shower or gone outside in low temperatures for awhile? She needs to see a doctor ASAP!

Answer 10

check your thermometer and what symptoms made you check her temp??

Answer 11

When I was 13, I didn't want to go to school, so I told my mom I wasn't feeling well.  When she took my temperature and wasn't looking, I took the thermometer out of my mouth and shook it down so it would look like I was sick.  Make sure this isn't happening with your daughter.

There is serious cause for concern if your daughter's body temperature is below 95 degrees, and you should take her to the doctor immediately.  A low body temperature could be symptomatic of one of the following conditions:

- Underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism)

- Diabetes

- Adrenal gland insufficiency (Addison's disease)

- Hypothalamus dysfunction

- Liver failure

- Kidney failure

- Widespread infection (sepsis)

- Excessive use of alcohol or illicit drugs

- A side effect of certain medications, such as phenothiazines, barbiturates, opiates, clonidine, lithium and benzodiazepines

So don't wait...GO TO THE DOCTOR NOW!
