Tired Aching Legs?

I know on most nights I must walk 20 miles during one shift. Alright, I'm exaggerating but I walk A LOT. I also notice a big difference when I wear my support hose opposed to when I don't.

For tired aching legs:
Standing or sitting for long periods can cause blood to pool at the ankles and have a hard time returning causing legs to ache and feel tired. 8-15mmHG compression stockings give a gentle squeeze at the ankles and go up the leg to get your blood back up to your heart.Helps relieve that tired feeling.
