What Causes Cold And Body Chills?

I don t know if I should be worried. I got a cold last Thursday and went to work on Thursday and had the chills all day. Friday I went to work and left early, came home and took some tylonol severe cold & flu and slept almost the whole day Saturday. Sunday I felt great, I mowed the lawn did laundry then crashed hard back in bed with a fever again. I took it easy Monday and today Ive slept almost all day. Im feeling hot now and constant coughing. This could be due to quitting smoking.

Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to upper respiratory tract infection.
I suggest you to use Ibuprofen three times a day.
I also suggest to drink liquids and a lot of rest.
