Question

had undergone ayurvedic treatment for a month

Answer 1

There has been no effective vaccine developed to prevent Chikungunya. Vaccine trials were carried out in 2000,but funding for the project was discontinued.

To relieve symptoms of fever and joint pain the drug commonly used is Paracetamol.

Rest is indicated during acute joint symptoms. Movement and mild exercise may improve stiffness and morning joint pains.

In unresolved arthritis that does not respond to aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, Chloroquine Phosphate (250 mg/day) has given some promising results.

Some studies have also shown that Chloroquine has some antiviral activity against this virus. However these are not conclusive studies.

Most patients recover fully from Chikungunya virus infection. They get better after a few days, however sometimes joint pain can persist for a longer period after the other symptoms have disappeared. I recommend you see a doctor of rheumatology.
