Callouses<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>When you push your feet into too-tight shoes or shoes that force your feet into unnatural shapes (such as pointy-toe shoes), you create pressure on the sides of your feet and toes. Over time, the rubbing and pushing from your favorite heels can lead to a hardening of the skin.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>3. Shortened Achilles Tendon<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>This might be one of the more worrying side effects of wearing heels: According to\u00a0Live Science, women who wear heels over a long period of their lives actually shorten their Achilles tendon. With the heel in the lifted position, heels can actually create a physiologically change in the muscles and tendons around the ankles. That means, when barefoot or wearing flats and shoes that cause the heel to reach the ground, the wearer can feel immense pain and stretching.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>4. Lower Back Pain<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Each year, I attend a hospital benefit where the dress code is formal. Wearing heels is a must, as is standing and visiting with other attendees for several hours. The following morning, my lower back is always in pain. Why? Heels actually cause your pelvis to push forward when you walk or stand, placing tremendous pressure on the lower back and causing lingering pain.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>5. Falling and Sprained Ankles<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>heels cause such an imbalance between the heel and the ball that the ankle is forced to become the fulcrum for your entire body. And, since ankles aren\u2019t built to take that kind of pressure, falls and twisted or sprained ankles can be pretty common. It\u2019s nearly impossible to perfectly balance, especially in very high heels, so any bump in the pavement can feel like a 10-foot wall when you\u2019re trying to scale it in your favorite pumps<\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>6. Awkward Spinal Curve<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Most fashionistas wear stilettos to flaunt their hour glass figure. High heels make the lower back arch out more than usual. In fact, the height of the heel is directly proportional to the degree of arch in your back. The awkward arch can cause nasty pains in the upper and lower back regions<\/p>\n<p>REF: . <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stylecraze.com\/articles\/side-effects-of-wearing-high-heels\/\">https:\/\/www.stylecraze.com\/articles\/side-effects-of-wearing-high-heels\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>7.

We\u2019ll first start with a brief history of heels and the effects they can have on your back and feet.<\/p>\n<p>Raised heels were developed in response to the problem of a rider\u2019s foot slipping forward in stirrups while riding. The \u201crider\u2019s heel,\u201d approximately 1-1\/2 inch (4 cm) high, appeared around 1500. The leading edge was canted forward to help grip the stirrup, and the trailing edge was canted forward to prevent the elongated heel from catching on underbrush or rock while backing up, such as in on-foot combat. These features are evident today in riding boots, notably cowboy boots.<\/p>\n<p>Riding heels lead to the more stylized heels. Beginning with the French, heel heights among men crept up, becoming higher and thinner, until they were no longer useful while riding, but were relegated to \u201ccourt-only\u201d wear. By the late 1600s men\u2019s heels were commonly between three and four inches in height.<\/p>\n<p>In 1533, the diminutive wife of the Duke of Orleans, Catherine de\u2019 Medici, commissioned\u00a0a cobbler to fashion her a pair of heels, for both fashion, and to increase her stature, since then the high-heeled shoes quickly caught on with fashion-conscious men and women of the French court, and spread to pockets of nobility in other countries. The term \u201cwell-heeled\u201d became synonymous with opulent wealth.<\/p>\n<p>Reasons for NOT wearing High-heels:<\/p>\n<p>Causes foot pain<\/p>\n<p>Creates foot deformities \u2013 hammertoes and bunions<\/p>\n<p>Causes unsteady gait<\/p>\n<p>Shortens the stride length<\/p>\n<p>Wearer is unable to run<\/p>\n<p>Alters forces at the knee leading to degenerative changes in the knee joint<\/p>\n<p>Foot and tendon problems<\/p>\n<p>Reasons FOR wearing High-heels:<\/p>\n<p>Changes the angle of the foot with respect to the lower leg \u2013 accentuating the appearance of the calves<\/p>\n<p>Changes the wearer\u2019s posture, leading to a more upright carriage and altering ones gait for a more seductive fashion<\/p>\n<p>Makes wearer appear taller<\/p>\n<p>Makes legs appear longer and feet appear smaller<\/p>\n<p>Over time there are negative consequences from wearing high heels. Some of consequences of wearing high-heels\u00a0may include \u2013 sprained ankles, lower back pain due to increased spinal curvature, leg pain due to added weight placed on the toes, shortened Achilles tendon, increased oxygen consumption, decreased stride and other changes to gait and mobility, and even the\u00a0tendency of osteoarthritis in the knees.<\/p>\n<p>Gait kinematics i.e. the way in which you walk\u00a0is usually adversely affected when wearing high-heeled shoes, most\u00a0particularly at the ankle joint. The changes in gait from high heels leads to excessive plantar flexion an\u00a0increased metabolic cost when walking and an accelerated muscle fatigue which overal can affect\u00a0your foot\u00a0stability and may lead to\u00a0ankle sprains and falls.<\/p>\n<p>Usually during gait the leg muscles of tibialis anterior and extensor hallucis longus tend to contract immediately after\u00a0initial contact with the ground and again towards toe-off. These muscles also\u00a0assist with ankle stabilization and arch support. The other leg muscle used during gait is that of\u00a0peroneus longus which acts\u00a0to stabilizes the ankle from mid-stance to push off.<\/p>\n<p>The activity of the muscles which dorsiflex and evert the foot\u00a0(fibularis longus and brevis) help stabilize the body over the center of pressure medially while the\u00a0muscles of the leg which aid in planterflexion and inversion of the foot (tibialis anterior) help move the center of pressure laterally. The action of the evertor and invertor foot muscles help aid\u00a0in creating\u00a0ones balance. With high heels the width of the foot ends up getting \u201csquished\u201d \u2013 width wise which in turn changes the foots center of pressure in keeping one balanced. This inbalance results in poor foot-ground interaction during stance phase and may lead to an inversion motion of the foot resulting in ankle sprains and or falls. In addition another problem which affects ones foot and leg muscles while wearing high-heels is that of muscule fatigue which can also lead to the inability of the foot to control ones balance and may\u00a0lead to a probable injury.<\/p>\n<p>Research: A study by\u00a0Gefen et al. in 2002used 8 females with an average age of 26 were\u00a0analyzed for\u00a0muscular fatigue and foot stability during high-heeled gait.\u00a0EMG leads were attached to both heads of gastrocnemius, soleus, tibialis anterior, extensor hallucis longus and peroneus longus. Their results found differences in muscle fatigue response between regular and ocassional wearers of high-heeled shoes.<\/p>\n<p>Women who wore high heels regularly were able to resist higher loads of about 1.08 \u2013 1.14x their body weight during push off<\/p>\n<p>The muscles of peroneous longus and the lateral gastrocnemius of regualr high heel wearers were more vulnerable to fatigue<\/p>\n<p>Imbalances in EMG activity was found in gastrocnemius medialis and lateralis muscles<\/p>\n<p>The center of pressure of ones foot under the heel and metatarsal heads were shifted to the lateral aspect of the foot when feet were fatigued \u2013 the authors attributed this to the imblance in fatigue rates of the gastrocnemius lateralis and medialis\u00a0muscles<\/p>\n<p>Peroneus longus muslce which aids in protecting the foot from inversion was more vulnerable in high-heeled wearers to fatigue therefore decreasing foot stability<\/p>\n<p>In the study it was also noted that there also tends to be a shortened length of calf muscle to tendon complex which reduced the normal range of motion in the foot. This decrease in calf muscle to tendon comples is accelerated in habitual \/ long term high-heel wearers as wearing high heels constrains the gastrocs-soleus muscle length to become shorter than usual and affects the motion of the foots range of motion.<\/p>\n<p>Another factor to consider while wearing high heels is the effect it has on your posture and center of mass of the body. A study by\u00a0C-M Lee et al in 2001\u00a0looked at the biomechanical effects of wearing high-heeled shoes.\u00a05 participants in their 20s were used for the experiment, which looked at the\u00a0effects of high heels on\u00a0standing and walking with three heel heights: Low at 0cm, Medium at 4.5cm and High at 8cm.\u00a0While wearing the different heel hights lumbar flexion angles were also measured from still radiographs taken while standing \u2013 three reference points were used to determine the lumbar flexion angle as well EMG readings were taken of the back muscles to determine the effect heels had on ones back muscles.<\/p>\n<p>The results from the study found that \u2013<\/p>\n<p>Lumbar flexion angles was affected during standing and walking and with differing heel heights \u2013 with each centimeter increase of heel height, trunk flexion angles decreased by a degree<\/p>\n<p>Trunk flexion angle increased by 16 degrees while walking<\/p>\n<p>From the EMG studies it was found that EMG values increased with heights of heels<\/p>\n<p>High heels increased the loading on erector spinae which can lead to low back pain at L4\/L5<\/p>\n<p>There was no significant value of heel height and EMG reading associated at L1\/L2<\/p>\n<p>High heels were found\u00a0to have a\u00a0significant effect on the movement of the bodys center of mass with the vertical displacement increasing with height of heel<\/p>\n<p>While wearing high heels one walks with more of an upward displacement in their bodies center of mass leading to a\u00a0more unstable posture\u00a0placing increased compressive force in ones\u00a0low back increasng\u00a0the\u00a0activity of the erector spinae to maintain posture which may lead to low back pain<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>References:<\/p>\n<p>Lee, C-M.
