Did the doctor: prescribe medicines such as antibiotics? Body rigors (or chills) usually denote high fever (and hence infection) and should not be taken lightly. Take him to the Emergency Room for blood tests and abdominal X-rays or CT and to be seen by an experienced clinician for proper diagnosis and treatment. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
