Idk why I even made an appointment with my doctor or if I should even keep it. He told me what it was a few years ago but I wasn’t standing for hours on end then so I didn’t experience pain then.
Meralgia paresthetica - Diagnosis and treatment - Mayo Clinic
I don’t know how to get relief. It even hurts on my days off when I’m not doing anything because it has been so aggravated by the hours standing the day or so before at work. Maybe I can just ask if it’s okay/safe to take ibuprofen everyday. To just kind of help the pain some. Work has aggravated it so much. It was always numb, sometimes tingly but never painful, but then again I have never been this physically active as I am at this job in my life. I don’t have diabetes I was tested for that. I’m overweight some but had this issue even when I wasn’t. I don’t wear tight clothing. It’s more than likely from all the scarring where I cut all over my thigh and leg on that are when I was younger.

Don't ever be ashamed of pain! Cuz working like that, isn't natural (After not doing that for years) - Over time it will get better (Like exercising), trust me. Take as much Advil as you need (400mg every 4 or so hours) =]
(Although with your stomach issues, be careful with Advil, cuz it's upsetting for the stomach. Like if you give it to a dog? It will throw up blood. But humans are pretty okay).
