7. Hydration
Besides all the other benefits of drinking plenty of water (that you are already aware of), being hydrated also helps you to stay energized and prevents muscle fatigue. When your body is dehydrated, your blood pressure lowers. This means that the heart will have to work extra harder to make sure the nutrients and oxygen present in the bloodstream reaches every part of your body. Drinking water helps to maintain ideal blood volume and regulates body temperature, two crucial factors to avoid exacerbated muscle fatigue.
8. Elevate your legs
Lay down on your back and keep your legs raised with the help of a pile of pillows (or lean them against a wall) to reduce swelling and relieve muscle fatigue. Stay in that position for 5 to 10 minutes.

9. Ice
Applying ice is the simplest and most effective way to quickly reduce the inflammation that, more often than not, is the cause of your sore feet. Apply it directly in the affected region 3 or 4 times a day for at least 10 minutes.
10. Stretching
Stretching is one of the most undervalued techniques there is. It doesn’t have to be done at the end of an intensive exercise session to be effective: stretching a few times a day for as little as 2 or 3 minutes will help prevent tired legs, especially if you have a sedentary job that requires you to sit or stand still for too long.
