Re: Aching legs and feet... Advice?

I have been standing for 20+ years, & if you are new to standing it just takes time to adjust. I did not read all the threads so this may have been said before. Not only will you adjust to standing but you will learn how to stand. Of course nothing is like setting down, but you can rest on your feet. Shoes & socks do make a difference for me Nike does the trick. I have very narrow feet & they fit me better than any other shoe. If I gain a little weight I can certainly tell it....I also think walking (not on the job) helps to condition your legs.Of course if you don't adjust & still have pain.....you might need to check it out with your MD.Good luck
