Lower back pain, spine out-of alignment, sore and thicker calves with spider veins, crooked feet….☠️
Just some of the reasons why I no longer wear heels despite knowing the fact they do make an outfit look 10 times better. On special occasions I would just bring them in my bag
Yes I am that girl who would walk into a party in flip-flops, and kneel down, take my heels from a plastic bag and change into them only for a photo before putting my flip-flops back on😂 I might not look as great in person but I know I am doing my own body good💪🏻
Looking good is not enough of a reason to sacrifice my spine, hips, knees, calves, ankles, feet, and long term posture🙅🏻
High Heels ❌
1️⃣The higher the heels are, the more you have to arch your lower back to keep your body balanced and positioned upright, affecting the natural curve of the spine, leading to back pain, lumbar spine flattening and displacement.
2️⃣Resting all your body weight on the balls of your feet causes weight distribution to be uneven, leading to stressed nerves and lower back pain. It will also cause foot pain and long term soreness, and even bone and nerve damage (not to mention blisters and ingrown toenails).
3️⃣Back, hip and calf muscles become tense to maintain balance, causing the muscles to cramp and bulge. It will lead to "spider veins" sticking out from your legs that usually tend not to go back in.
4️⃣Excess pressure placed on knees, accelerating the wear and tear that leads to osteoarthritis.
And of course, the higher risk of having sprained ankles - all these for the sake of fashion❗️
I used to be the biggest fan of heels myself, my feet might hurt but anything to look hot! 🔥 But after studying all these facts suddenly make them sexy no more🙈 Will stick to my sandals, flip flops, and the sexiest of all - sports shoes 👟😏
