Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Arthralgia means pain in a joint. Polyarthralgia means pain in several joints (two or more for the purposes of this discussion). Arthritis is a diagnosis and is not a symptom; its diagnosis requires the physical signs of articular inflammation or the physical or roentgenographic signs of osteoarthritis.

Detailed explanation-2: -While arthralgia itself is typically not life-threatening, you should seek immediate medical attention if you experience: Severe, unexplained joint pain that lasts for more than several days. Fever not associated with flu or other virus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most arthritis causing arthralgia is not curable. Realistic therapy goals help reduce frustration. The main therapy goals are to improve joint function and relieve pain in order to improve the quality of life of the patient. There should be a follow up and feedback on treatment from the patient.
