Joint pain after chikungunya is common and may persist for weeks or even months after the fever has resolved. The knee joints are often affected, and the pain may come and go irregularly. In most cases, this happens because the virus can cause lingering inflammation in the joints. To relieve the pain, take adequate rest and avoid heavy physical activity that puts strain on the knees. Gentle stretching exercises and light walking can help keep the joints flexible, but avoid overexertion. Applying a warm compress to the painful joints may reduce stiffness and discomfort. You may also use pain-relieving medications such as paracetamol after consulting a doctor, especially if you have other medical conditions. Maintain a healthy diet and drink enough water. Foods rich in calcium, vitamin D, and protein may support joint health. If the joint pain is severe or accompanied by swelling, redness, fever, or difficulty walking, please consult a doctor, as you may need further evaluation or medication to control persistent joint inflammation after chikungunya.
