Question Is it or is it not possible to feel your own forehead with your hand to see if you have a fever? My wife thinks she can, I think not.
Thanks,
Earl
Answer Hello Earl,
VERY interesting question. The answer is not as easy as yes or no.
I will say probably not! If she had a fever the chance that her hands felt hot as well would be good therefor her forehead may not feel hot to her.
If her hand where cold on the other hand and her face was not she may seem to be burning up to her own touch even though there was no fever.
The reason I say PROBABLY not instead of no is I suppose there is a slight chance she can, but it may be just by chance, a guess really.
So my vote is for no. Good luck with this, I love questions that make me think.
