High heels are absurd: study proves!

Heels have long become an integral part of a woman's wardrobe. They make the legs visually slimmer and more graceful, giving the image sophistication and charm. But how safe is it to wear high-heeled shoes, and what consequences may arise from constant use of such shoes?

A study of 4,000 British women found that one in five would wear heels despite the pain and discomfort they cause. More than half of women admitted to returning home with their shoes off, and 80% of them have several pairs of shoes that they have never worn or only worn once or twice.

But besides aesthetic problems, wearing heels can lead to serious health problems. For example, wearing high-heeled shoes constantly places stress on the forefoot, which can lead to deformation of the joints and foot. Pointed-toe heels can also cause foot deformities and crooked toes.

Research shows that wearing high heels can be especially dangerous for teenage girls, whose bodies are in the process of actively developing. Constantly wearing heels can lead to joint deformation and also increase the risk of bunions and hallux valgus.

Additionally, wearing high heels can exacerbate health problems in older women who already suffer from varicose veins and joint problems.

Thus, wearing high heels can lead to serious health problems, especially if you use such shoes constantly. But you shouldn't give them up completely. For those who are not ready to give up heels, you should choose shoes with lower heels and give your feet a rest after wearing heels for a long time. Take advantage of workouts that will help strengthen your leg muscles and reduce stress on your feet. In the end, the health of your feet and wallet will thank you.
