A member asked:
Could standing too long cause muscle knots?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
By "knots": I assume you mean "cramps" Standing for long periods of time can cause muscle cramps! If these occur too "quickly" have your FEET/SHOES checked out ...you may have a foot support problem("flat feet") Hope this helps! Dr Z
