A question for my fellow hard working class persons...after what hour on your feet do you begin to notice your ankles/lower legs swelling?

16 hours, usually after 16 hours or more of being on my feet constantly I will notice some puffiness in my ankles.

I have to work (2) 10 hours or two long days before I notice . Remember to wear your Ted hoes stockings! Helps prevent alot of issues.

Sounds horrible

It is unfair with the body to work for so long

Swelling in the ankles, feet and legs is often caused by a build-up of fluid in these areas, called oedema. Oedema is usually caused by: standing or sitting in the same position for too long & or eating too much salty food.
