Ah, don't take anymore steroids now. It can affect your body and pancreas and after a point it can cause insulin resistance also. But it's good you took steroids under the care of your family doctor. Chikungunya pain can last for months. Start with a lil physiotherapy for your joints.

After chikungunya, joint pain can last weeks to months (post-viral arthritis). Usually improves gradually. Use NSAIDs (like ibuprofen/naproxen, only if safe for you), warm compress, gentle stretching/physio. Avoid repeated steroids. Take calcium + vitamin D, stay hydrated.

Hlo sir, chikungunya ke baad joint pain lamba chal sakta hai, kabhi-kabhi 3–6 mahine tak bhi. 👉 Aapke liye advice: Dard ke liye paracetamol ya NSAID le sakte ho (agar koi medical problem na jese BP, kidney problem) Steroid dobara mat lena bina specialist advice ke. Garam sek & halki physiotherapy/exercise daily karo. Hydration aur balanced diet maintain karo. Agar swelling, zyada stiffness ya pain daily life disturb kare, to rheumatologist ko consult karo. ⏳ Dheere-dheere pain kam ho jata hai, thoda patience rakhna zaroori hai.

Steroids are of doubtful value in this case because you are dealing with an infection. Joint pains persist for some time after you have become afebrile. You should start some mild exercises like walking and stretching the muscles.  You will see some improvement.

First of all. Its a viral fever no specific antiviral drug is available for chikungunya Treatment is symptomatic+ supportive,  plenty of fluids nd rest is the mainstay of treatment. You need only paracetamol, dont go for NSAIDS unless free of  dengue Steriods are only necessary for severe arthritis

Hello, joint pains after chikungunya infection can persist for several weeks to months even after the fever and acute illness settle. This is quite common and called post-viral arthritis/arthralgia.

Joints pain after chikanginya will take a lot of time to heal. According to me,  use warm compresses , oil massage and hot water wash.. Avoid using pain killers unless it's too much bothering. If u have tooo much pain Take T. Aceclo- p 1-0-1 Don't worry much

I completely understand what you are going through. After chikungunya, it is quite common for joint pains and stiffness to remain for several weeks or even a few months. This does not mean the infection is still active, but rather that the joints take time to settle down. Many patients experience this and gradually improve. Since you have already taken a short course of steroids under your doctor’s guidance, you do not need to worry. What helps now is gentle stretching, light physical activity, warm compresses, and regular pain-relief medicines if prescribed. Try to keep your body well hydrated, eat a balanced diet, and rest properly. The pain can be frustrating, but it usually reduces with time and most patients recover completely. If the pain becomes severe or new symptoms appear, it would be good to review once again with your doctor. Please be reassured that you are on the path to recovery.

Take tab flexon m.r one every 8hours for 3 to 4 days, after meals. When muscular pain, joint pain becomes less, just do do warm compression and apply diclofenac ointment 2 to 3 times daily. Take tab. Shelcal M one morning and one evening for 10 days.

It may take  time  in some for six months. Continue  voveran 100 one per day. After food. Flexon Mr two times after food  or sos for pain. Locally apply hot water bag Sit in sunlight.
