[|Human|] Hi My partner is 63 years .He is being treated for  Bacterial Pneumonia with anti - biotics. His temp is fluctuating between 35.4 in the morning and goes up to 38.4 at night. We are using Panadol to control the high tepm. Can you tell me if the lower temp is too low. Thanks  Gail
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No need to worry about these fluctuations in temperature. In body, there is normal diurnal variation in temperatures. So no need to worry about fluctuations in temperature. He is not having temperature more than 40 degree Fahrenheit. So he is not having fever. This is good sign for pneumonia patient. This suggests that antibiotics are working. His lower temperature is also not too low. If it goes below 34 degree Fahrenheit than it is known as hypothermia. So no need to worry about these fluctuations. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your boyfriend. Thanks.
