Hello,
It is not related to thyroid.
As first-line management, you can take drugs like paracetamol to reduce the body temperature.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
A short course antibiotics can be tried empirically.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
