A member asked:
Could prolonged standing cause leg problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prolonged standing: You may have some venous problems that can cause swelling. Pain and tiredness may be nerve compression in your low back region. Be mindful of shoes you wear. You may need support stockings as well. Also, do not stand-try to walk to help the Calf muscles milk your legs in order to push edema up through your leg veins. Good luck
