hello
certain viral fevers cause joint pains as long as upto 3 months, and doctors do not necessarily label it as arthritis but call it arthralgia. It is nothing serious although pain medication and physical therapy is required alongside hot fomentation. complete blood count, ESR, c reactive protein crp is done.Tylenol or Advil may be required. so consult a physician

hi,
you can try using contrast bath method.the method is simple by starting the procedure by dipping into the Hot water first followed by cold water. dip in hot water for 3 minutes and 2 minutes in cold. end the procedure after 3-5 repetition by using the Hot water as the last step.
perfrom slow and steady progressive strengthening exercises for the upper limb and lower limb.
perform free ROM exercises initially and then go along with graded static isometrics. post that you can follow the use of the thera bands and thera tubes for graded strengthening.
if you need a guidance on certain exercises which you did not understand you can visit a physical therapist who can assist you to learn one.
I wish you a speedy and progressive recovery.
thank you
