A member asked:

I am working in a kitchen and standing for 11 hr a day... am struggling from my feet pain while standing.. can u please give me some advice..

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May need support: This could be a sign of many problems. Flatfoot deformity, arthritis, swelling etc. Sometimes a better comfortable supportive shoe can be effective, but like most things, you need to have this evaluated by a podiatrist to see what type of pathology may be causing this.
