These pain usually lasts from 6 to 12 months. So pain continuing for more then 9 years could be because of multiple joint pain or arthralgia, Exercise involving range of motion for all joint would be helpful, icing can reduce inflammation and pain. Mild pain killers etc can be recommended once meeting a oethopedican.

Keep the patient well hydrated is the mainstay of treatment n keeping fever under check. No antibiotics/painkillers as a general rule. Monitor vitals and urine output. May take 7-10 days to recover but weakness can last longer. Adv bed rest.

Sir/Madam, This is regarding my mother who was diagnosed with Autoimmune hepatitis on 26th Sep. Her treatment is going very well. On 14th Sep, before her treatment started, her SGPT and SGOT were 616 IU/L and 361 IU/L respectively. Liver biopsy confirmed Autoimmune hepatitis. Her treatment started on 3rd Oct. Doctor started her treatment with Wysolone - 30 mg (1-0-0) for the first 2 months and when her SGPT and SGOT came under 50 IU/L, he switched to Budesonide (6 mg-0-3 mg). My query is regarding the side effects of the steroid use. My mother has been diabetic for the past 5 years for which she took glimestar M1. When the Doctor started her on Wysolone, in less than a week, the side effects started to show. Her blood sugar started to fluctuate uncontrollably. It goes from as high as 500 mg/dl to as low as 55 mg/dl. Doctor put her on Insulin (NovoMix 30 Flexpen). I was advised to constantly monitor her sugar and vary the units of Insulin as per her sugar level and that's what I have been doing ever since the treatment started. This sugar fluctuation thing is very unpredictable, so unpredictable that I have to constantly stay with my mother all the time. We don't even travel anywhere because of it. I have been telling our Doctor to do something about it but he says the same thing every time, control the sugar with Insulin. Is there any other way to minimize her sugar level fluctuation? Can you advice any medicine. Thank you.

, With steroid treatment blood glucose does increase, because corticosteroids are diabetogenic. One of the possible ways is to reduce the dose of steroid to minimum possible, plus use a long acting Insulin like Basalog (Glargine) plus a short acting insulin to control post breakfast & post lunch surges of glucose Thanks.

Chikungunya is just like any normal viral infection. It has no interference with your getting pregnant so you don't bother and go ahead. All the best.
