The harm of wearing high heels for a long time
When women wear high heels, they can increase their charm, but at the same time, it also brings harm to women's health. Let me introduce the dangers of wearing high heels for a long time.

First, toes

When the toes are pressed hard on the front of the shoes, they will be in an unnatural shape, which will lead to the foot problem that the joints in the middle of the toes are deformed because the toes are often bent. Mallet toes can cause toe pain.

The toe cap is too sharp, squeezing the thumb will cause the thumb to valgus. The everted thumb is oppressed by the friction of shoes, and it will sting when it is inflamed. In addition, the toe cap that is too sharp will squeeze the foot, which will worsen the problem of bunion.

Second, the soles of the feet

Where shoes and feet constantly rub, thick hard skin will grow. When you put on high heels, your feet slide forward and squeeze into that narrow shoe, which will form a brand-new pressure point and friction force on your feet. Easy to grow corns and thick cocoons.

For some women, short heels can no longer satisfy their pursuit of beauty, and they are wearing higher and higher heels. But I don't know that the main reason for flat feet is the relaxation of plantar aponeurosis, which is located in the sole of the foot and maintains the stability of the arch like a bowstring. The higher the heel, the longer the back arm of the arch, and the greater the tension (pulling force) on the plantar aponeurosis. If the tension is too high for a long time, the plantar aponeurosis will relax, the arch of the foot will be reduced, and serious flat feet will be caused.

In addition, wearing high heels may also lead to a series of accidents related to high heels, such as sprains. In order to reduce the harm of wearing high-heeled shoes to our health, when choosing high-heeled shoes, it is best for women to limit the height of high-heeled shoes to less than 3.8 cm, and reduce the pressure of heels on foot joints by adding insoles.

Third, the waist

Put on high heels, lean your pelvis forward and your waist backward. After a long time, it is easy to cause lumbar muscle strain. Lumbar muscle strain will accelerate degenerative changes such as hyperosteogeny and ligament elasticity reduction, and become a prelude to lumbar disc herniation. In addition, after wearing high heels, standing and walking can't follow one's inclinations, and the coordination ability of the whole body reaction decreases, which is also prone to lumbar sprain.

Fourth, cervical vertebra.

High-heeled shoes make people's center of gravity move forward excessively, which will inevitably lead to the pelvis leaning forward, the curvature of the spine increasing, and the stress on the cervical spine concentrated, which is easy to cause injuries, and the accumulation of such injuries will eventually lead to the occurrence of cervical spondylosis.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) ankle joint

That is, "ankle sprain", after wearing high heels, the adjustment ability will be weakened, which is easy to cause "ankle sprain". Moreover, the higher the heel, the greater the potential energy of turning inward and the more serious the injury.

Sixth, the knee joint.

Due to the change of load-bearing line, the wear of knee cartilage is aggravated, and the degeneration of articular cartilage is induced or aggravated. It is found that it is difficult for the ankle to function normally when wearing high heels. Therefore, extra work is done by the knee, which leads to increased knee pressure and arthritis.

What are the disadvantages of women wearing high heels?

Easily sprained

I believe that most women in life have sprained their feet because of wearing high heels. When people walk in high heels, the stress on their knees and ankles is uneven, which is more likely to cause sprains. When they are going downhill, the pressure on their knees will increase, which will also cause degenerative osteoarthropathy.

At the same time, when women walk in high heels, their body weight will be concentrated in the front of the soles of their toes, and these toes will be squeezed by the tips of their shoes, which will cause corns, and some people will get neuromas. This is why some women will report that their feet wearing high heels often feel pain, and for those women who walk around in high heels all day, it is likely to cause some unhealthy foot problems such as flat feet.

Many people don't know that women wearing high heels actually have a great influence on the cervical and lumbar vertebrae, especially the lumbar vertebrae. It should be said that when people wear shoes or flat shoes, the normal physiological function of' bending' can play a role of balance and stability in the body, and if they wear high heels, this balance will be broken and it will also cause lumbar pain.

phlebeurysma

Especially those who stand in high heels for a long time, the blood circulation of their feet is affected, which is easy to cause varicose veins.

In a word, high-heeled shoes not only bring beauty to women, but also bring great troubles to the body, but it is obviously unrealistic for women to give up high-heeled shoes. So how do women balance this?

First of all, when wearing high heels, don't walk in small steps, keep your legs together as far as possible, try to let your heels land first, and try to wear shoes no higher than 5 cm if possible. Human health science points out that shoes smaller than or equal to 5 cm are more likely to form a natural "artificial arch", which is also conducive to preventing joint injury of muscles. At the same time, when choosing high heels, try not to choose thin heels, so that the stress area of shoes can be larger and it is easier to reduce some hazards of high heels. In addition, when buying high heels, remember not to buy too small, too small, your feet can't move freely, and your actions will be affected.

Secondly, if you don't wear high heels, you can put on shoes when you get home and let your ankles move freely. At the same time, if the weather is not too cold, walking barefoot is also a good choice.

Besides, you should learn to massage your feet to relieve the pain. Usually, you can soak your feet with hot water, which can not only promote blood circulation, but also help alleviate the harm caused by wearing high heels to women's health.

Generally speaking, high heels can make women look more elegant and feminine, and at the same time, they should learn to care for their feet every day, so as to truly become good friends of female friends.
