Answer 2

Chikungunya is a relatively rare form of viral fever caused by an alphavirus that is spread by mosquito bites from the Aedes aegypti mosquito, though recent research by the Pasteur Institute in Paris claims the virus has suffered a mutation that enables it to be transmitted by Aedes albopictus (Tiger mosquito). This was the cause of the actual plague in the Indian Ocean and a threat to the Mediterranean coast at present, requiring urgent meetings of health officials in France, Italy, and Spain

The symptoms of Chikungunya (also called as Chicken Guinea) include fever which can reach 39°C, (102.2 °F) a petechial or maculopapular rash usually involving the limbs and trunk, and arthralgia or arthritis affecting multiple joints which can be debilitating. The symptoms could also include headache, conjunctival infection and slight photophobia. In the present epidemic in the state of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu India, high fever and crippling joint pain are the prevalent complaint.
Fever typically last for two days and abruptly comes down. However, other symptoms, namely joint pain, intense headache, insomnia and an extreme degree of prostration lasts for a variable period, usually for about 5 to 7 days.

There is no specific treatment for Chikungunya. Vaccine trials were carried out in 2000, but funding for the project was discontinued and there is no vaccine currently available.

A serological test for Chikungunya is available from the University of Malaya in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

"Treatment [of Chikungunya]:

Supportive care with rest is indicated during the acute joint symptoms. Movement and mild exercise tend to improve stiffness and morning arthralgia, but heavy exercise may exacerbate rheumatic symptoms. In unresolved arthritis refractory to aspirin and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, chloroquine phosphate (250 mg/day) has given promising results."

In February 2006, an Italian researcher, Andrea Savarino, and colleagues advocated a possible use of chloroquine as a broad spectrum antiviral agent in an article published in the Lancet Infectious Diseases. "the tolerability, low cost, and immunomodulatory properties of chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine are associated with biochemical effects that suggest a potential use in viral infections, some of whose symptoms may result from the inflammatory response

Answer 4

One might try high dose vitamin C (500-1000 mg every 2-3 hours until diarrhea occurs. Dr Klenner used high dose IV vitamin C doses to treat encephalitis infections with some success in years past.
Olive leaf extract 500 mg 1-4 times daily is supposed to have antiviral activity against some kinds of viruses.
Symptomatic palliative measures seem to be the only allopathic treatments available at this time.

Chikungunya is a relatively rare form of viral fever caused by an alphavirus that is spread by mosquito bites from the Aedes aegypti mosquito, though recent research by the Pasteur Institute in Paris claims the virus has suffered a mutation that enables it to be transmitted by Aedes Albopictus (Tiger mosquito). This was the cause of the actual plague in the Indian Ocean and a threat to the Mediterranean coast at present, requiring urgent meetings of health officials of France, Italy and Spain, but nothing seems to be moving that way.

The disease was first described by Marion Robinson and W.H.R. Lumsden in 1955, following an outbreak on the Makonde Plateau, along the border between Tanganyika and Mozambique, in 1952. Chikungunya is closely related to O'nyong'nyong virus.

The symptoms of Chikungunya (also called as Chicken Guinea) include fever which can reach 39°C, (102.2 °F) a petechial or maculopapular rash usually involving the limbs and trunk, and arthralgia or arthritis affecting multiple joints which can be debilitating.

A serological test for Chikungunya is available from the University of Malaya in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The pation has to be incubated for about 12 days and the fever will come down after 12 days and patient become normal.

Answer 6

Chikun gunya is a viral disease. The symptoms are lot of pain in joints with high grade fever, followed by rashes all over the body (seen in some individuals). The symptoms (Pain) persists for long period varying from a month to several months. Treatment includes management of fever & pain & occasionally antibiotics are given to manage secondary infections caused b,coz of lowering of immunity. Chikun gunya is transmitted thru Aedees egypti mosquito. Vector control measures can prevent the further transmission of disease.

Answer 7

Chicken guniya is a disease in which your body parts feel pain if you feel very much pain in your body parts take a crocin before sleeping this will mostly prevent you from getting Chicken guniya.

Answer 8

Chikungunya Fever (Compiled by Dr. Sapan J. Pandya)
Introduction: Chikungunya fever is a viral disease transmitted to humans by the bite of infected mosquitoes. Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a member of the genus Alphavirus, in the family Togaviridae. CHIKV was first isolated from the blood of a febrile patient in Tanzania in 1953, and has since been identified repeatedly in west, central and southern Africa and many areas of Asia, and has been cited as the cause of numerous human epidemics in those areas since that time. The virus circulates throughout much of Africa, with transmission thought to occur mainly between mosquitoes and monkeys.
S / S: CHIKV infection can cause a debilitating illness, most often characterized by fever (102.2 °F), headache, fatigue, nausea / vomiting, myalgia, petechial or maculopapular rash, and crippling joint pain involving multiple joints, conjunctival infection and slight photophobia. The term ‘chikungunya’ is Makonde (a South African language) for ‘that which bends up’ in reference to the stooped posture developed as a result of the arthritic symptoms of the disease The incubation period (time from infection to illness) can be 2-12 days, but is usually 3-7 days. “Silent” CHIKV infections (infections without illness) do occur; but how commonly this happens is not yet known. Acute chikungunya fever typically lasts a few days to a couple of weeks, but as with dengue and other arboviral fevers, some patients have prolonged fatigue lasting several weeks. Additionally, some patients have reported incapacitating joint pain, or arthritis which may last for weeks or months. The prolonged joint pain associated with CHIKV is not typical of dengue. No deaths, neuroinvasive cases, or hemorrhagic cases related to CHIKV infection have been conclusively documented in the scientific literature. CHIKV infection (whether clinical or silent) is thought to confer life-long immunity.
Method of Infection: Mosquitoes become infected when they feed on a person infected with CHIKV. Monkeys, and possibly other wild animals, may also serve as reservoirs of the virus. Infected mosquitoes can then spread the virus to other humans when they bite. Aedes aegypti (the yellow fever mosquito), a household container breeder and aggressive daytime biter which is attracted to humans, is the primary vector of CHIKV to humans. Aedes albopictus (the Asian tiger mosquito) may also play a role in human transmission is Asia, and various forest-dwelling mosquito species in Africa have been found to be infected with the virus.
Treatment: A serological test for Chikungunya is available in Malaysia. No vaccine or specific antiviral treatment for Chikungunya fever is available. Treatment is symptomatic—rest, fluids, and ibuprofen, naproxen, acetaminophen, or paracetamol may relieve symptoms of fever and aching. Aspirin should be avoided during the acute stages of the illness. Chloroquine in vitro has some antiviral activity against this virus and is also used in the symptoms of rheumatoid polyarthritis (250 mg /day).
Prophylaxis: The best way to avoid CHIKV infection is to prevent mosquito bites. Infected persons should be protected from further mosquito exposure (staying indoors and/or under a mosquito net during the first few days of illness) so that they can’t contribute to the transmission cycle.
Use insect repellent on exposed skin.
Wear long sleeves and pants (ideally treat clothes with repellent).
Have secure screens on windows and doors to keep mosquitoes out.
·Get rid of mosquito breeding sites by emptying standing water.
