It is generally recommended to choose a mercury thermometer as the thermometer for measuring body temperature. The mercury thermometer is more accurate than the electronic thermometer, and also avoids many errors.
Mercury thermometers are used to measure deep body temperature, anus, armpit temperature and oral cavity temperature. Compared with electronic thermometers, they are more accurate and rarely affected by fluctuations in the external environment.
If the electronic thermometer measures the forehead temperature and ear temperature, it will be fluctuated by the temperature fluctuation of the surrounding environment. If the frontal temperature and ear temperature are measured for children, they will also suffer from uncoordinated, posture changes, etc., which will also cause fluctuations and effects on body temperature. However, when the mercury thermometer measures deep body temperature, such as anal temperature and armpit temperature are relatively accurate, it is rarely affected by the external environment and the patient's uncoordinated measurement reading.
