Brief Answer:
Most probably it is due to fatigue

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Welcome to HCM

I have studied your case and I think that it is most probably it is due to muscle fatigue. This is common due to following reason.
1.Common in obese, smoker or Diabetics
2.If your job needs standing or frequent travelling.
3.There is lack of vitamin B12 or Vitamin D

I would suggest you to check your serum B12 and vitamin d level. If there is deficiency then you need to take Methylcobal and calcium daily. Vitamin D 60, 000 units per week needs to be taken for six weeks Avoid smoking, prolong standing.

I hope this answer will be useful for you.

Let me know if there is any other follow-up questions.
Thanks
