After an 8hr shift my knees and ankles are swollen. after a 12hr shift i'm in pain from lower abdomen with bad knee pain. what could this be?

Bad veins?: consider using compression stockings 18-20 mmHg, and elevate your legs after a long shift. Ask a doctor for US to measure vein reflux. It is just one possibility- but a car main problem .
