Legs ache (especially my right) after first few days on the job?

I moved to another city and searched for jobs in January and February. Finally I got a stockroom job at a shoe store, and it's similar to my previous occupation because I'm walking around the jobsite, climbing a ladder to put stuff up. Additionally I have a 23 minute drive to the jobsite.





The very bottom of right foot aches the most, then the metatarsals started aching when I woke up this morning, and ever since the first day the front part of my thighs ache like crazy because I am using those muscles to climb up ladders for 4 hours.





I like the responses I read from Yahoo Answers and I will do the following for my feet: Elevation, rest, and warm/cold water baths with (epsom?) salt.





But what can I do to heal my thighs? Hot water packs? Cold water packs? Or regular aspirin?





I think part of the reason why this happened is because it's been a while since I've done anything physical.





Thanks!

Aspercreme or something similar will help immediately, then alternate hot and cold packs. The ache will go away as you get in better condition.





And if you can, get someone to massage your feet. And get a good pair of shoes, if you haven't already.





Good luck!
