See Podiatrist: The problem may just be poor foot support. Best to see a podiatrist for exam.

Flexible arches: You may have flexible arches, which can cause your arch to collapse when you stand, causing pain and cramping because your muscles have to work extra hard to hold your arches up. It is common to begin having pain at your age. I recommend you see a podiatrist, who can get you an insole for your shoe that helps support your arch better.
