99 is almost normal. That small a difference from normal could be just having had a hot drink before going to the doctor or a very minor infection. The doctor said it's a cold. Colds get better in their own time, and medication is really to keep him comfortable. I wouldn't worry about it.

It's still only very slightly above normal. Honestly, if one of my children had a cold and a temperature of 99 degrees, I'd make them some honey and lemon and let them slob around the house, but I wouldn't worry about them.

What symptoms does he have?

Stop worrying. If you didn't have a thermometer would you even think there was anything wrong? Go by your husband. If he is generally well and healthy, then don't worry too much about the details.

On the other hand, if you KNOW he is ill, go and kick and scream until he gets attention, even if his temperature is normal.
