I got the worst chills of my life Tuesday that lasted till today. Im still chille but nothing near as bad as yesterday. My teeth were chattering I was so cold. Now the cough has phlem. But I cant cough long enough to get it out because my head hurts so bad I have to put my hands on my head and apply pressure while Im coughing  I have never felt so sick like this. Im a 27 yr old female and am healthy please help me
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Cough and cold are mostly due to viral infections of pharynx, sinus,larynx, epiglottis, bronchi etc.Sometimes it could be due to bacterial infection also. You should go for routine blood count and sputum examination if there is sputum to rule out infective pathology of lungs. You will require antibiotics (quinolones or accolades) to prevent super infection with analgesics and anti-inflammatories, antihistamines with other supportive treatment. Consult your physician for further advise.
