Hypothermia occurs when the body gets cold and loses heat faster than the body can make it. A normal rectal body temperature ranges from 97.5Â°F (36.4Â°C) to 99.7Â°F (37.6Â°C) and for most people is 98.6Â°F (37Â°C) by mouth and 99.7Â°F (37.6Â°C) rectally. Hypothermia is more likely to occur when you are exposed to cold air, water, wind, or rain.
Symptoms of hypothermia. Hypothermia can be distinguished into three stages â mild, moderate or severe. The signs and symptoms of hypothermia can be approximately grouped with the temperature ranges of the different stages: For mild hypothermia (35-32 oC), signs and symptoms include:
