What Causes Body Stiffness And Pain In The Legs After Waking?

i am achy and stiff every time i get up to move after being stationary for a little while: after sitting at my work desk for maybe 20 minutes or more, when i wake up and get out of bed... My feet and legs just hurt and it takes a minute or two to walk it out and then it doesn t hurt any more. I am 53 but i feel like i am an old lady the way i get up after sitting in the chair for a short while. This has been going on for a few months now. What could be possible causes?

Hello,

It could be an early sign of arthritis.

You can take analgesics like tramadol for pain relief.

If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
