In addition to other’s comments about blood flow, many people change their posture when standing for long periods compared with walking. It is worth checking that your posture is good if you have issues standing especially if you have back pain. I used to have lower back pain after 30-60 minutes of standing until someone corrected my posture. It disappeared straight away.
