After a 5 hour flight every joint in my body hurts. Most people dont seem to have this issue. What’s wrong with me?

I used to get this when i was younger, it was tied to my mental anxiety of having to sit still 7 hours. I hated it. 1 hour into the flight my legs would be in pain. The kind of pain you get when a pet or whatever is on your legs and you can't move but you want to, even if it hasn't been very long.

After flying a lot in my life I managed to accept my fate, and that helped a lot. It starts happening on the last hour of the flight, or if we're stuck on the tarmac too long.

I wouldn't recommend this if you fly very frequently, but you can take some ibuprofen or acetaminophen at the start of the flight / part way though and it should be active around the time you start getting sore.
