Get checked.: Persistent abnormally low temps (less than 97.6) or persistent high temps (more than 99.6) are often the sign of an infection and if you have them more than 3 days, it is wise to get evaluated and see if you need treatment. Get seen today or tomorrow. Consider a reasonably priced consult on Healthtap Prime, 24/7 which is far less expensive than an urgent care visit and often a visit with your PCP
