Diagnostic tests for Chills:
Various tests are used in the diagnosis of Chills. Some of these are listed below :
- Physical examination
- General appearance - jaundice may suggest ascending cholangitis or cholecystitis.
- Temperature - Chills are usually related to a fever but may also be caused by a low body temperature. Fevers can be due to infection; malignant disease; metabolic disorders e.g. gout; blood disorders e.g. haemolytic anemia; vascular disorders e.g. stroke, brain hemorrhage; immunological disorders e.g. lupus.
- Examine the heart for a heart murmur which would suggest bacterial endocarditis
- Examine the lungs for noises that suggest pneumonia or bronchiectasis
- Examine the abdomen for enlarged liver - enlarged liver without jaundice may suggest amoebic abscess.

Diagnosis Checklist: Questions your doctor may ask (and why!)
During a consultation, your doctor will use various techniques in their assessment of Chills.
Your doctor may ask several questions when assessing
your condition. It is important to remember that your consultation is a two-way process and any extra information
you can share with your doctor about your symptoms may help them with their diagnosis.
Some of the questions your doctor may ask are listed below:
- How long have you had the chills?
Why: to determine if acute or chronic.
- If chills are associated with a fever, what is the pattern of the fever and chills?
Why: e.g. intermittent fever of malaria, Epstein-Barr virus and ascending cholangitis; continuous fever is common with viral infections such as influenza; remittent fever where temperature returns towards normal for a variable period but is always elevated may occur with pelvic abscess, wound infection and cancer; undulant fever where bouts of fever for several days are followed by several days of normal temperature occur with brucellosis infection and lymphomas.
- Have you been exposed to extreme cold weather or cold water?
Why: may help when considering cause of low temperature and consequent chills.
- Travel history?
Why: overseas travelers or visitors may have special or even exotic infections.
- Past medical history?
Why: e.g. AIDS, Rheumatic fever, pneumonia, immunodeficiency, cancer.
