yes it is connected to rheumatic arthralgia.you will be having such pains and swelling in your weight bearing joints and then after few weeks it will subside on its own
you can take common painkillers but it will give relief for the time being.
you can take hot packs on your affected joints,avoid cold areas or cold packs it will aggravate the pain.
walking,swimmimg,yoga(especially suryanamaskar) any of these or combination will help you in relieving pain
hope you find this to your help,in case of further help or query feel free to contact
