Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Specialist Questions Fever

My 1 month old child has high temperature for the third day straight.

My 1 month old child has had a high temperature for 3 days already, and it's just not going away. It's over 101. Should I take him to the doctor? His fever comes on and off.

Yes he should be checked immediately. A baby this age is considered immune compromised and should be evaluated immediately.
