Hi Thanks for posting on hcm.
Sorry to hear that you are caught with chickengunya hope you are in good health.
Usually it is normal to have sore joints in people after suffering from chickengunya so nothing to worry. If pain is very sever take some painkiller and rest the joints but don't immobilize completely.
How this answered your question.
