Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you may be having reative arthritic following fever. You can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C are helpful in recovery. I treat my such patients by injection triamcilone weekly with good results. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. I hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
Wishing you good health. Take care.
