What Causes Pain In The Feet After Gallbladder Removal?

I have always had a job standing for 8 to 12 hours a day. I had my gallbladder out 5 years ago and ever since the tops of my feet hurt after I get off work so bad I can t walk comfortably. The only way I sleep at night is by putting Salanpa s on the top of my feet. Why is this happening?
