Hello,

As this should be related to the vascular supply in the lower limbs a physician should be contacted for having a thorough examination of the body.

As this kind of chills is common using the AC but there might even be the possibility of an underlying cause.

Fixing up an appointment with a physician should help him to understand the complains better as what you mention here is too brief to come to a conclusion. Post a thorough examination you may be asked for some basic urine and blood routine.

Medicines will be prescribed based on the provisional diagnosis.

Rest assured. you should be fine soon.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
