Hi,
He might be having fever giving rise chills and cold feeling.
He might be having Malaria or some urinary tract infection or something wrong with prostate.
Give him paracetamol as and when required.
If temperature persisted then go for blood and urine testing to know the causeof fever.
Give him enough water.
Ok and take care.
