Joint pain after chikungunya

2021-11-23 05:56:18
It's 15 days post chikungunya. But joint pains are still there. What to do for this? Joint pains in feet, fingers of hand, random joint pains.. After taking zerodol SP it feels better but once effect of tablet is down again it's severe. Can't sleep or move properly. What's usually the case and line of treatment?
