Hi,
Body aches and pains are very common with Prolia, which generally resolves in a few days without any treatment. However, if the pain is severe or you are very sick, you may need to go to your doctor. Hopefully, this would not be needed as aches and pains would go away in a few days. For the time being, you may use over the counter painkillers like Paracetamol.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
