Is Headache And Chills A Cause For Concern?
My husband suddenly came down with the chills. He has had a headache most of the day but not a bad one. Should I use only a light blanket to cover him and what else should we consider to reduce the rigors? His temperature appears to be around 100 degrees.

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a viral infection.
I suggest to give him anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the fever.
You can give him Acetaminophen.
I also suggest to give him liquids and rest.
I recommend eating a healthy diet.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
