    I too was a victim of this. Prevention is better than remedy_keep away from mosquito day and night_mosquito net is best

    once infected you will not have much choice except go through the ordeal for few days

    mean while you may try few medication just to manage joints pain

    Chikungunya fever is a viral disease transmitted to humans by the bite of infected Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes.All stagnant water must be treated and removed. Stagnant water is where the infecting mosquito aedes aegypti breeds. Practise mosquito control regularly. It normally bites people during either dawn or dusk.So take care !
