Anyone taking antimalarial drugs to prevent malaria who develops a fever or flu-like symptoms while taking the medicine or within 2-3 months after traveling to an area where malaria is common should call a physician immediately.
Treatment of knee pain depends on the cause of the knee pain. If you have been working on your knees all day then potentially rest and anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen can help. If the cause is trauma and there is possible joint damage then you should seek medical attention.
Because knee pain has so many different causes, there is no single treatment that can help bring relief. However, there are several options your doctor may suggest. Rest your knee. If your pain is the result of an injury or overuse, the doctor may ask you to rest your knee for a period of days or weeks. This will help inflamed areas return to normal so that your pain will subside. Ice your knee. Similar to resting, ice can help swelling subside and hasten healing from certain injuries.
