I've been struggling with joint pain for the past 10 days and my doctor mentioned it might be due to a calcium deficiency. He suggested taking calcitas powder twice a day. I've been on this for 5 days now, but I still don't feel any relief. Should I keep taking it, or is there something else I should consider?

I've been dealing with some joint and chest pains since I had chikungunya last month. They seem to come and go, sometimes they're really intense and other times not so much. Is this something that will eventually clear up on its own, or should I be doing something to help with the recovery? I'm just a bit worried and would appreciate any advice.
