High Heels.....and the pain *ouch




Most of the women especially in asia somehow lacking in that metres(u know what I'm trying to say).So, to gain some 'metres' back again,we would have to go the hardest way possible and that is by wearing a high heel shoes.

Well ladies, we're used to suffering to look good, but are we really prepared to put our health at risk all in the name of fashion?

The study of over 1,000 women aims to highlight the potential pain-problems women are risking by carrying big bags, and wearing sky high heels in order to look on-trend.

It also seeks to show the long term damage caused by being a fashion victim. Whilst looking good and keeping up with the catwalk is a happy pastime for lots of women, further findings from the research may make them think twice in future.

Over 56% are often in pain when carrying their big bags, with almost a quarter admitting it happens every time they throw one over their shoulder.

The top three pain hot-spots are, shoulder (68% of women), neck (35% of women) and arm (28% of women).

Over half (51%) of women wearing heels at least two to three times a week, it’s worrying that two thirds (66%) are in pain wearing them, with one in five admitting to feeling aches every time they slip them on. The top three hot-spots in addition to feet, are ankles, calves and the lower back.

What’s also concerning is that almost one in five said that while they worry about causing potential long term damage, they won’t stop carrying heavy bags or wearing killer heels, not least because it makes them feel good. Over half (56%), of women are sticking to their heels for the feeling of confidence they get from wearing them.

high heels may look so good..but the pain cause damage that u would have to pay in future..so that remember ,dont used it regularly and used it with caution.

Well,I do wear heels too like most of the women but I only wear it when necessary and other than that,I would just wear my flat shoes.The lesson here is that,use it with caution ;)
