Afebrile is a word used in medicine to describe a person who does not have a fever. You know when you're feeling sick, and your body gets all warm, and you start to feel really hot? That's what happens when you have a fever. It's like your body is fighting off some kind of infection or illness and it gets all fired up. Sometimes, doctors or nurses will use a special word to say that someone doesn't have a fever, and that word is afebrile. So if a doctor tells you that you're afebrile, it means that you don't have a fever and your body temperature is normal.
