There are a bunch of different types of thermometers and different ways to use them.

What is the most accurate type and how do I properly use it?

Thank you!

Hello Anon
Thank you for writing.
If you are asking for yourself, we can't recommend a brand - and each brand will say they are the most accurate.
The Mayo Clinic has the pros and cons for all kinds of thermometer - you can take a look here (copy and paste): https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/fever/in-depth/thermometers/art-20046737
Best,
