General & Family Physician 's  Response
Fever with chills has to be evaluated for typhoid, malaria and urinary tract infection(either of them).So I suggest you to take opinion of physician as early as possible.Taking ibuprofen might not help you although it is an analgesic/antipyretic but leaves the underlying infection untreated.Get well soon.Hope I have answered your question.
