My knee has been hurting since a recent fever. What might be causing this, and what should I do to reduce the pain?

Asked by Male, 35 · 1 month ago

Knee pain after a recent fever is often due to post viral inflammation affecting the joints. Rest the knee, avoid strain, use a warm compress, stay hydrated, and do gentle movements to reduce stiffness. Eat nutritious food and allow your body time to recover before returning to heavy activity. If pain persists, worsens, or swelling or difficulty walking occur, consult a doctor to determine the cause and guide appropriate care.
