When is a low adult body temperature dangerous?

A low adult body temperature, also known as hypothermia, is considered dangerous when it drops below 95 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degrees Celsius). At this point, the body starts to struggle to function properly, and the risk of severe health complications, including organ failure, increases.

Here are some signs and symptoms of dangerously low body temperature:

- Shivering

- Confusion

- Hallucinations

- Disorientation

- Slurred speech

- Weak pulse

- Shallow breathing

- Loss of consciousness

- Cold or blue-colored skin

If you suspect someone is experiencing dangerously low body temperature, seek immediate medical attention. Treatment for hypothermia involves rewarming the person's body and addressing any underlying health conditions.
