What Could Cause Burning Sensation In The Thighs After Waking And Standing For A Long Period Of Time?
I get burning in my hips/thighs after walking and standing for a long period of time. EXAMPLE when I go shopping and stop and look at something then start walking again I get a burning in my hips. It gets so bad that I need to sit down for a couple of minutes to release the pain and then I go again.

Hello,
Standing for long periods can put pressure on the joints and muscles. So, in my opinion, the symptoms seem to be related to overuse. I suggest avoiding activities that can trigger the symptoms. You can also use a painkiller such as Ibuprofen in case of pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
