Hello
As you mentioned that this fever is just for 2 days .
You are also having rapid heart beat ( as this is natural due to fever ) . Also having shivering , this may be due to throat infection or flu ( common cold ) .
All these symptoms are just for 2 days ,so most probable cause may be flu , so don't take any tension .
Only take paracetamol 10 -12 mg / kg body weight 3-4 times in day for 3-5 days .
If symptoms decrease then well and good , if condition worsen then consult a physician and take his treatment .
For relief , you will have to wait for 5-7 days .
