Standing or sitting for hours at a time without getting up and walking around can cause blood to pool in your legs and feet. This isnât a serious condition, it happens only because you are not moving around. You might notice that your feet are swollen and legs feel stiff and heavy.
Deep vein thrombosis, or DVT, a blood clot in a deep vein that develops after extended periods of inactivity, can also cause major leg pain. Long flights or car rides make it difficult for the leg to return blood back to the heart. If that blood return slows or stops, it can create a clot within the vein.
