They look so nice in the store window that our first impulse is to ask about our size and buy them as soon as possible. However, what we often ignore is that the shoes we just bought can cause serious health problems.
This is because both high heels and our beloved flat sandals, if not selected properly for
our foot type, have the potential to harm our body more than the comfort we desire. According to a recent study from Auburn University, wearing sandals without proper arch support not only causes back, leg, ankle, and foot pain, but can also change the way a person walks. Likewise, further research has shown that uncomfortable shoes can contribute to foot deformities, dryness, and painful skin injuries in this area of the body.
Features of a good shoe
The healthiest shoes should have orthopedic support and cushioning, and offer personalization and fit. Shoes should be made from high-quality materials so that consumers feel comfortable while standing.
Problems
The average adult takes around 5,000 to 8,000 steps per day. That’s over 150,000 steps in a month, and 1.5 million steps in a year. Most people take foot health
for granted until they experience pain, swelling, or some other condition. From poor circulation to nutritional deficiencies, many factors can affect foot health, which ultimately impacts overall well-being.
Dangers
With heels of moderate height reaching up to 5 inches, there is an increase in stress placed on the joint head of the foot, big toe, and the back of the ankle. Despite the foot health risks associated with high heels, many women refuse to stop wearing them. The most important thing a woman can do if she wants to continue wearing high heels is to stretch the calves and plantar fascia daily, as well as vary heel heights to minimize stress on the feet.
Recommendations
Women have four times more foot problems than men, and high heels and incorrect shoe sizes are largely to blame.
