Hello
Thanks for visiting HCM
Since you are suffering from AOSD which cause is not known.The management of this condition is mainly with nonsteroidal antiinflamatory drugs
IN severe joint pain swelling,the glucocorticoids espeaially prednisolone is given as your case. but last two days joint pain swelling were devoped, you can increase the dose by consultation with ortho doctor.
