Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thank You for contacting HCM. My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.

I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. Shaking and chills occur in fever. As soon as fever gets settled, condition improves itself. If i were his treating dr then i would have advised following things:

- Acetaminophen once every 6 hrs till fever settles
- cetirizine one at night for 3 days
- take cold water in a pot, dip a cloth piece and put it over the body(cold water sponging).It will help reducing the fever


Hopefully you will see improvement in 8-12 hrs BUT if condition remains same or aggravates then you need to take him to hospital.


Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
