Hi, Anon.

Thank you for your message.

Standing all day can take its toll on your legs and feet and can cause pain, tenderness and swelling (build up of fluid). Eleven hours is a long time to be on your feet.
You might want to see your doctor for an evaluation if the pain is, as you say, severe. If your condition worsens, you may need to reduce the amount of time on your feet.
