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

Off the top of my head: Stretch? Try to get on the plane later than most people? Take a sleeper train instead?

How is it while on the plane compared to after, are your knees hitting the seat in front? Maybe try a neck pillow to ease neck/head stress? Compression socks for foot, ankle or calf pain?

I do get up and move around about once an hour.

Pain is basically all over.
