DANGERS IN WEARING HIGH HEELS AND HOW TO PREVENT IT
A review of previous researches which was published in the Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology last year revealed that a chain reaction that travels right from the foot, reaching as far as the spine is triggered by the alteration of the natural relationship of the structures making up the foot and ankle when one puts on high heels.

In a more recent research (this year, 2015) conducted in South Korea, researchers found out that frequently using high heels causes imbalance in ankle-muscles complex and makes one prone to injury.

The research was carried out among students studying to become airline attendants by researchers from Hanseo University, South Korea. Since these students would be wearing high heels while on duty after graduation, they were required to start using high heels to classes right from their first through the third year. This gave the researchers the opportunity to study the long term effect of frequently wearing high heels. Senior students would have used it more than freshers who have not been using it until then.

WHAT RESEARCHERS FOUND
1. Initially, there is increased ankle strength as the ankle tries to adapt to new stress it is being exposed to from the unfamiliar footwear.
This was deduced from the second year students having stronger ankles than the first year students(sophomore)

2. Later, the ankle muscles becomes significantly weakened, likewise ankle balance becomes worse
The third year students showed significant ankle weakness (as demonstrated through computerized exercise machines) compared to both freshers and second year students. Their ankle balance was also the worst (as demonstrated on Woobly Board).
