Women who often wear high heels and stilettos during their early years are more likely to develop arthritis, an inflammation of the joints, later on. This is shown by American research.
The team surveyed 1,400 men and 1,900 women, asking them about their foot problems and what type of shoes they often wore † It showed that there is a strong association between poor shoe choices and arthritis . in women †
High heels, sandals and flip-flops are the main causes of subsequent foot problems, sports shoes are the healthiest for your feet † This problem does not exist in men. Only two percent of them wear unhealthy shoes.
To alleviate the harmful effects later in life, young women who cannot let go of their high heels should do daily stretching exercises do, the researchers said.
