What Is The Remedy For Joint Pain, Headaches, Heel Pain And Knee Pain Caused Due To Typhoid Fever?

I was suffering from typhoid fever 15 days ago, which started with severe joint pains, headaches and bodyaches. After the fever subsided, the joint pains are still there, particularly the finger joints, knee joints, elbow and heel pain is the severe one to the extent I am not able to walk due to pain. Can you suggest a remedy for this?

Dear Friend.

i would like to know complete details of your fever and want to see your investigations.
I am asking you for this because, this much joint pains are unlikely in typhoid fever.
Severe joint pain occurs in Chicken guinea Fever , dengue.

It might be a result of reactive arthritis. Do you have any eye redning or itching or any ulcers any where in body especially on your penis.

You may take Paracetamol for pain on "as or when required basis" under your doctor's guidance.
