Hello
Pain in different joints after fever is a common complaint by few patient .
Such type of fever may be due to these possibilities , these include:
1 Chickenguneia , diagnosis can be confirmed by serology test as well clinical history of patient.
2 Strep throat also produces such type of symptoms ,so physical examination by ENT is important.
3 Rheumatoid arthritis, as this produces such type of symptoms . Get in blood for Rh factor , blood for CBC, ESR .
In my opinion take tylenol 10-12 mg / kg three or 4 times in day and consult your physician .
Good luck.
