Last night, I suddenly experienced a strong shaking chill that lasted for about 3 to 4 minutes. It was pretty intense and I'm a bit concerned about what might have caused it. Could it be something serious or is it just a one-time thing? Would love to hear your thoughts on what might have happened and if I should take any precautions or seek medical advice.

I'm dealing with a fever that's been going on for two days now. The doctor mentioned it's viral, but I'm just wondering how long it'll usually take to get better. Would it be a few more days, or could it last longer?

-Viral fevers usually last 35 days, but rest and hydration can help you recover faster. If the fever persists beyond 5 days or worsens, follow up with your doctor. Take care!
