What causes cold,violent shivers,headaches,fever and nausea?
Patient: Hi. My boyfriend has had the following symptoms maybe 3 or 4 times in the span of about a month or a little more. He gets cold, shivers violently, has a headache, a fever, and feels like throwing up. Sometimes he gets one or two of the symptoms, sometimes all, but it keeps coming back. What's wrong with him? He is 16, about 140 pounds, 5'8". He's only had some minor sports injuries. Doctor: Hi, dearI have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.  He has fever with chills and rigor, headache and nausea.  It can be due to viral infection, malaria or urinary tract infection. He should go for complete blood count and urine routine and microscopic examination. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then he should take antibiotic treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
