Help doctors, My sister has got chikungunya before 2 years. She has been diagnosed at that time. But now for the last 2 months, she is suffering from severe pain in hands and legs. She even can't lift weights or vessels in kitchen. Please tell her some medicines or treatment to treat the pain.

Do contrast bath therapy twice daily. Take hot water in one bowl & cold in another. Both temperatures should be bearable by the patient. First immerse hands in hot water for 3min then move to cold water for 1min, keep repeating for 20min. While hands will be in water keep moving hands actively. Squeeze smiley ball & hold for count of 3 then relax, 25 repetitions twice daily
