Stiletto Heels
Tuesday, April 20, 2010
   Girls just love to wear stilettos. They make girls look tall and beautiful. It is a 'must have' for all girls. But are there disadvantages? Disadvantages Stilettos transmits a large amount of force in a small area. The pressure transmitted can cause damage to carpets and floors. All types of high heel shoes will counter the natural functionality of the foot. It will cause skeletal or muscular complications when worn excessively. Stilettos are no exception. Wearing them too much will essentially remove the protective springiness/cushioning of the arch, which will create different kinds of painful problems. Continuous usage will also shorten the calf muscle. It is said that such posture changes the pelvis and spine stability, which results into painful problems. As a stiletto is shaped in a triangular way, it can also alter a foot's shape. It is also said that continuously wearing stilettos might affect a woman's internal organs and fertility. The forward tilting of the pelvis allows the abdominal contents to spill forward. In doing so, woman compress their internal organs in a condition known as visceroptosis. As heels get steeper, your pelvis is asked to tilt forwards. This can slow down the gastric function, leading to menstrual dysfunction and can ultimately impair fertility. Overall, the posture forced on women in high heels, especially stilettos, is bound to cause muscular aches, foot problems, and in many, back pain. In conclusion, try not to wear stilettos excessively as it will cause health problems. Credits: |
