Hi, I am going thru the acute phase of chykunguya. I´ve experienced most of the symptoms (joint pain, fever, rash, headache) in a relatively mild fashion with the exception of a very painful stabbing lower back pain on my right side, specially when standing up after sitting for a while. Walking tends to alleviate the pain. Is this a common symptom and will it last long?

Summarized question: How to treat the acute phase of chikungunya?
