Dear,
All the symptoms told by you are suggesting a viral fever and as we all know viral fever presents with all the symptoms u mentioned.
We have seen a lot of cases of chickengunia which is longterm complication of biral fever and ur symptoms fall in definition of chickengunia but again there is not a definitive treatment for the same , only supportive treatment is given.
I would like to suggest you to take routine pain killers and wait for few more days...keep ur body well hydrated and have alight healthy food.
Thank you.
