High Heels Can Cause Physical Damage by supereagle(m): 9:18pm On Feb 01, 2012
Women who wear high heels harm their knees, legs and feet Researchers at the Musculoskeletal Research Program, Griffith University in Queensland, Australia reveals that women who wear high heels on a regular basis could be causing irreparable damage to their knees, feet and leg muscles.

The new study showed that women who have been wearing high-heeled shoes on a long-term basis have forced themselves into an unnatural posture, which can often lead to physical damage.

The scientists studied 9 women, who had been wearing high heels 40 hours a week for at least two years, and then compared them to a group of women who rarely or never wore heels.

The results showed that the women who wore high-heels took much shorter and forceful steps than non-wearers and this behaviour remained even after they took off the high heels.

They also developed shorter fibres in their calf muscles, which puts greater strain on the muscle and can lead to discomfort, and muscle fatigue.

well I have always known that those with pointed heels are the worst.
I am not soo sure about the high heels with thick heavy sole, cz they offer good support and balance unlike the pointed ones.

I have actually had a patient who fractured a bone in the foot when she suddenly twisted the ankle while wearing high heels.

I know no matter what u say,it won't stop the ladies from wearing the shoes.Fashion doesn't have to make sense with women.

[size=16pt]Don't women know this? Or, does any one of us, need to be told 

Or, is that how nature intended our feet to hang - up there?? undecided undecided  And, you thought that's natural, eh??

Common sense they say, is not really common in most people.

Even babies could see it's not normal, and can make mummy's feet very sore - and not do the school run for weeks because of damage, it can cause.  Get it, sometimes, fashion can kill!!!
