Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It is not malaria, because in malaria, the chills are very aggressive, and every 24 , or 48 hours,followed by fever and remission.
It appears to be the infective hepatitis, may be due to virus, alcohol, drugs etc.The other causes may be the renal disease, sore throat etc.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ranitidine, and paracetamol, till the diagnosis is established.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
