What treatments are available for Chikungunya?

Treatment is symptomatic and supportive:

- Rest and hydration to manage fever and fatigue.

- Pain relievers like acetaminophen or paracetamol for joint pain and headache (avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs until Dengue is ruled out).

- Physical therapy may help with chronic joint issues.

- Seek medical attention if symptoms persist or worsen, as complications can include neurological or cardiovascular problems.
