Muscle Soreness
With a trichinosis infection, an individual's muscles may be sore. It may feel similar to the aches following a tough workout but without having done any intense activity. This discomfort can make moving uncomfortable and challenging.
A warm blanket or compress may help to soothe achy legs and arms. Over-the-counter pain medications and creams may be recommended by a physician to help a patient recover from their infection more comfortably.
