So I purchased an infrared thermometer and it works quite well. Only thing is that it looks cheap and feels cheap – do I really care? Not really 😉 It works and works well. I use it to see the difference in body part temperatures (sprained ankle vs one that isn’t) to let me know how to proceed. That’s one of many other uses. I’m happy now…
