Hi , I am covid positive and since 2 days I am sweating profusely at night, followed by extreme chills and shivering.
However on measuring temperature,it was normal during night. This happens 2-3 times at night only.
Is it a sign of anything serious.
Do I need to get anything else checked.
Also generally how many days fever lasts in covid?
