you said it's mainly in your joints? the two most likely things are:

1. when you were moving stuff the other week, you overstressed your joints, and your daily stuff that you've been doing since is a bit too much for your body to compensate for and heal. if that's teh case, take a couple days off, staying off your feet as much as possible, and that could help.

2. arch problem, like you mentioned. what happens, especially if you have flat feet, is that since the arch isn't supported, everything gets shifted out of place a bit, and pinches nerves and tissue and such, causing pain. and it can throw things off all the way up to your hips and even lower back pain. anyways, 1 day of wearing proper support won't cure that. i had a major problem with it a few years ago because i was always wearing sandals and an old pair of shoes that no longer gave any support. i bought a new pair of shoes and some insoles and about a week later there was no pain.
