Considering the epidemic of chikungunya which is rampant now, the primary thing that comes to ones mind for joint pain is chikungunya. If you have had an episode of fever with joint pain then the diagnosis is most likely.You have not mentioned your age, the other associated symptoms and if there has been a history of trauma or any infection.The symptoms can be treated only if the cause is detected for which you will need to consult a general physician. If the joint pains are due to chikungunya infection then painkillers need to be taken for releif from pain.
