Working for long time in Kitchen can be very difficult. From Cooking to washing dishes continues standing for hours can lead to problems like foot pain, heel pain, and back pain. Sometimes, if we ignored small problems, it can turn into a serious illness. Housework can negatively impact housewives' health. Tasks like dishwashing often require prolonged standing, leading to back, leg, and lower back pain, causing both physical fatigue and mental distress. While remedies offer temporary relief, adopting proper posture while working in the kitchen can alleviate these issues.

Here are three simple ways to stand that can prevent leg and heel pain during dishwashing and other household chores.

1. Keeping a distance between the two legs: - While standing in the kitchen, we usually stand with our legs close together. But standing in this way puts stress on our legs, muscles and spine. That is why, instead of standing in a cautious position with both legs close together, we should stand in a relaxed position with a small distance between the two legs. Standing in this way with a distance between the two legs does not put stress on the spine, as a result, problems like back pain do not bother us. This maintains the balance of the body, and even if we stand for a long time, we do not get tired, and problems like leg pain, heel pain, and back pain do not bother us.

2. Stand with the soles of the feet on the knees: - While standing in this way, keep the right leg straight and lift the sole of the left foot and place it on the knee of the right foot. While standing in this way, stand with the support of the kitchen bench. Standing in this position keeps your spine straight and straight, so you don't get back pain.

3. Keep one leg slightly elevated: - If you have to stand in one place for a long time in the kitchen, then keep a small stool (footrest) or stone under one leg. After some time, switch legs, that is, place the left and then the right leg on the stool. This remedy reduces the stress on the waist and improves blood circulation. This remedy reduces waist stress and fatigue and also provides relief from problems like leg pain and back pain.
