Causes: The most frequent infectious causes of intermittent fever are focal bacterial infections, mainly infections localised to canals like urinary or biliary ducts or the colon and also infections of a foreign material. Truth: 100 degrees may not be a fever. The well-known 98.6 degrees, is a normal temperature taken by mouth. An axillary temperature of 99 degrees in the morning may be the start of a fever.? Anything over 100.4 degrees F is considered a fever. Suggestion: Diagnosis of intermittent fever is frequently based on the clinical history but some biological tests like complete blood count and blood culture are also used.
