High heels are the “Cinderella’s glass slipper” that makes every woman beautiful, wearing high heels because the center of gravity has shifted back, the chest is naturally upright, the hip arc will be more intensified, visually reinforcing the femininity, showing the curve of the front and back, naturally feminine. But this sexy femininity, is at the cost of their health. A, flat feet for a long time wearing high heels, because the body’s strength is concentrated in certain parts of the palm of the foot, rather than equally divided across the palm of the foot, so that poor walking posture caused by foot muscle weakness, and then develop into spastic flat feet; daily walking, the body is dependent on the root of the bunion, little toe root and heel 3 parts to support the body weight, wear high heels when the body weight is basically transferred to the forefoot, easy to cause the forefoot to become wider, the thumb bent to the outside, and the forefoot to the outside. The thumb is bent to the outside, “bunion”, the tendons of the arch of the foot will be stretched, and over time, the tendons relax, the arch will lose support and collapse, the original arch of the foot will collapse or disappear, forming flat feet. Second, if the toenail by extrusion, repeated external impact injury, easily lead to ingrown nail and bacterial infection triggered by nail infection. Wearing high heels for a long time can be through the shoes on the toes of excessive extrusion, friction and compression “to” nail fungal disease. Studies have shown that the time spent wearing high heels is directly proportional to the prevalence of nail fungus, with damage to the little toe and bunion being particularly prominent. In addition, wear narrow, high-heeled shoes, increased the extrusion and friction on the forefoot, easy to trigger corns and calluses. Third, toe deformation Long-term wear of high-heeled shoes can also lead to toe deformation, often manifested as hammertoes, bunions, bunions, little toes inversion and other symptoms. As the bones of the toe joints protrude medially, wearing pointed high heels for a long time will put pressure on the bones of the forefoot, affecting the muscles attached to the bunion area and causing the bunion to move in the direction of the rest of the toes. If women wear high heels without laces, plus shoes are relatively small, more likely to lead to toe extrusion of the foot bunion or small toe deformation phenomenon. Fourth, knee arthritis According to a British scholar on the relationship between knee arthritis and high heels research found that wearing high heels and walking barefoot when the hip, knee, ankle joint force is completely different, often wear high heels will significantly change the normal function of the ankle joint, walking the human body must be compensated by the hip and knee joint to maintain a stable gait. Long-term tension and pressure can lead to degenerative changes in the patellofemoral joint cavity, thus inducing knee osteoarthritis. Fifth, ankle injury Wearing high heels will also change the shape of the foot and leg muscles. As the foot mainly relies on the toes to move forward and stand, thus intensifying the contraction of the calf muscles. It has been proven that prolonged leg tension can lead to shortening of the leg tendons, which in turn hurts the ankle that keeps the body in balance. When wearing high heels, the heel is padded and the compressed Achilles tendon becomes less flexible, making it susceptible to Achilles tendonitis. The stability of the ankle joint becomes weaker, so in orthopedic clinics we often meet cases of ankle sprains and even fractures due to improper wearing of high heels. Six, urinary incontinence The average person walks with the heel on the ground first, which can slow down the impact force of 80%. But wearing high heels forces the forefoot to bear too much pressure, which makes other parts of the body, such as the knee, pelvis and other parts of the body to absorb more shock force. The greater the pressure on the pelvis and nearby muscles, the faster the muscle groups, including the urethral sphincter, will degenerate, making the urethra less able to control urination, so wearing high heels for a long time may lead to urinary incontinence. Seven, low back pain after wearing high heels, the human body negative gravity line greatly changed, the pelvis tilted forward, the waist back. Excessive lumbar back extension makes the back muscle contraction tense, the lumbar spine small joints and joint capsule in a state of tension, long-term, joint capsule and lumbar back muscle that occurs strain, causing back pain. The pain in the lumbar hip is often light and heavy, and the symptoms increase after exertion and when the sky is cloudy, and the lumbar seems to break when sitting for a long time, and can be improved by pounding with the hand. The symptoms can be reduced or even disappear after a period of time, but they often reappear and are difficult to be cured. All of these are manifestations of lumbar muscle strain, the consequences of lumbar muscle strain, so that the most weight-bearing, maximum activity of the lower lumbar vertebrae suffer the most, can accelerate the osteophytes, so that degenerative changes such as reduced ligament elasticity appear in advance, or the degree of aggravation, as a prelude to lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spinal stenosis, lumbar spondylolisthesis.
