Is it normal for my father, who has diabetes and arthritis, to still experience pain and have lost 10 kg after 25 days of Chikungunya while taking Ultracet twice a day, and what steps should we take next?

It is actually quite common for joint pain from Chikungunya to persist for weeks, especially with his pre-existing arthritis. However, his 10 kg weight loss in 25 days is significant and needs prompt medical attention, particularly because he has diabetes. While Ultracet (tramadol/paracetamol) helps manage the pain, his rapid weight loss and diabetes control must be evaluated. Please consult his doctor soon to check his blood sugar levels, review his medications, and ensure he gets proper nutritional support.
