Leg Pain, Standing Duration, TeachersAbstract
Standing for long hours can cause muscle fatigue and tension, leading to leg pain due to pressure on the lower extremities’ muscle caused by muscle strain. In addition, it can also interfere with blood circulation which can disrupt productivity in carrying out teaching activities at school. This study aims to investigate the relationship between standing duration and leg pain among teachers at selected school in Airmadidi. Research method used in this study was a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design with statistical analysis of Spearman correlation. The sampling technique used was total sampling, with a total of 74 respondents. Data were collected using a questionnaire of Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The results showed that the average standing duration among teachers was 180 minutes. Most respondents (37.8%) experienced severe leg pain. Spearman correlation test showed p value of 0.089 indicating that there is no significant relationship between standing duration and foot pain. These results indicate that standing duration alone cannot be considered the primary cause of foot pain among respondents, however, most of the respondents still experience discomfort due to fatigue and leg pain. Future researchers are advised to include additional variables such as footwear, BMI, physical activity, and to record standing duration and pain in a more detailed and accurate manner.
