• A fever is one of the symptoms of an underlying
  illness. Fever alone is not a disease, but a
  natural reaction of the body to ward off the
  sickness. But of course, we can not discount that
  a fever is a signal that the body is not well. It
  is crucial that the temperature is taken
  accurately. A forehead thermometer is non
  invasive making it less troublesome to use. If
  the kids are upset because they are hot, this
  instrument can well just glide over their
  foreheads and be done in a matter of seconds.

• The temporal artery in the forehead emits the
  heat from the skin and the tool can pick it up
  and give a reading. A small beeping sound is let
  out indicating that the scan is correct. It can
  be used on a baby who is fast asleep. Kids and
  adults with ear infections can also use one. Do
  not forget that if you are bringing in the
  thermometer from another room that is cold, you
  will need a few minutes to wait. This tool
  greatly picks up heat and variance in temperature
  may affect its accuracy. It conveniently operates
  on a standard 9v battery.

• An infrared forehead thermometer on the other
  hand, uses an infrared light to give a reading of
  one's temperature. It is a little pricey
  depending on the number of strips in the package,
  the brand, and of course quality. The entire
  family can use both instruments. Hygiene and
  safety is well thought of. It is wise to read the
  instruction manual first to make sure that you
  get things done right if using these items for
  the first time.

• I find the Vicks forehead thermometer that I use
  to be a good choice. It gives a reading in three
  seconds. It is easy to hold. It is easier to read
  with its bold digital display design. It is handy
  and compact. Storage is not a problem. It is
  reasonably priced. It is available online, in
  pharmacies, or supermarkets. It is the brand used
  by my pediatrician and other health practitioners
  I have met.

• After many years of using thermometers, I have
  finally concluded that I won't go back to those
  mercury ones. Studies show that mercury is found
  to be toxic and can have unhealthy effects on the
  body. Manufacturers continuously come up with
  better ways to help the consuming public to reach
  optimum health. I enjoy the convenience of going
  digital. It leaves me no room to worry. The whole
  household gets the benefit that their health is
  never compromised. Using new breakthroughs in
  research, people nowadays have a better chance of
  getting rid of diseases and stay in the pink of
  health.

• In conclusion we can say that the forehead
  thermometer is a very good addition to your tools
  to check up on your children. They will not be
  disturbed in any way and you can easily see if
  the child has temperature or not. We can avoid
  the discomfort caused by regular thermometers
  that no kids love.
