Why do i have chills when i have a cold even though i dont have a fever?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's like mild fever: Think of being warm-chills-warm-chills (but with no high reading on the thermometer) as having a mild fever. When feeling warm, the body is wanting to cool off (the brain is saying that you are hotter than the brain wants you to be). When feeling chills, the body is wanting to get warmer and maybe have a fever (the brain is saying that it wants you to be hotter, maybe even get feverish).
