Painful feet and ankles

Hi all, hope you are all as ready as you can be for the Festive season. Has anyone experienced painful feet and ankles. When I get up in the morning I can hardly walk with pain at the bottom of my foot and painful ankles. The same happens if I have been sat down for a while in the afternoon and get up. I walk lots and have always done so. Wondering if its the statins (20mg Astovastin), or any other of my medications, betablockers, aspirin and ramapril. I had a triple bypass in March 2018. Thanks in advance for your help as always. x
