I am recovering from cold and flu. I keep getting goosebumps that comes and goes and feel like having fever but I don't have high temperature. Last night I was woken up as I was soaking with cold sweat. I am still coughing quite a lot, trying to get rid of lots of phlegm. I am worried if I actually having some kind of infection.
Hi, You might be having some sort of infection like upper respiratory infection, sinusitis or infective bronchitis with chest congestion etc causing your cold sweating,goose bumps or fever. You should undergo routine blood count with sputum and chest x-ray to rule out any other pathology of lungs. Treatment is mainly depend on the the underlying cause but you might require antibiotics (quinolones or macrolides) with expectorants and decongestants,antipyretics, antiinflammatories with other symptomatic treatment. So,better you go to pulmonologist and seek for treatment.
