Throbbing painful legs due to heat and humidity, and standing all day. what can i do about this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Leg Pain treatable: Best way to reduce painful legs due to standing is to start your day wearing "compression stockings." these can be bought without a prescription at a drug store or at a special pharmacy supply place. They are called jobst stockings also and come in different leg lengths and "pressures" measured like blood pressure. They reduce swelling which is cause of pain.
