Answer. It sounds like you may have a fever! Fever causes both sweating and cold with chills. This is because, when you have a fever, the body temperature tends to rise and fall around the fever every few hours. When the body temperature is rising, you will perceive this as being cold and having chills (in fact, your brain is making your muscles shiver to help raise the body temperature). Then, when the temperature is falling, the sweat glands and blood vessels in your skin open up to release the excess heat, leading to sweating.
Causes of cold sweats and night sweats. The body normally produces sweat as a way to help keep cool. Sweating normally occurs with exertion such as when exercising or in high temperatures. However, there are other reasons for sweating. Sweating can be triggered by fear or anxiety, and this is often referred to as a cold sweat.
