I am sorry to know about your issue.
Processor temperature issues are usually caused by the fan/heatsink integration or its failure. You may want to remove the heatsink, inspect its pins just to make sure they are not broken or bent and integrate it again applying new thermal compound if needed. We suggest cleaning the dust from the fan and make sure there are no obstructions or noises.
When properly installed, the heatsink should not wiggle or shake if you attempt to move it; the pins should not come up if you try to pull them up. Please refer to the following links:

You may also reset the BIOS in your motherboard as an incorrect setting or overclocking the CPU or memory may cause the processor to overheat. The processor should be tested with the default BIOS settings but keep in mind other settings could be reset as well affecting the operating system. For this step, please refer to your motherboard owner's manual or contact their support line.
Please monitor the temperature from the BIOS or using the Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool available in the link below.
