The Effects Of High Heel Shoes On The Skeletal System,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Since the 1500s, high heel shoes have been one of the cornerstones of a woman's wardrobe. This footwear accentuates the wearer's calves and changes the wearer's posture and gait, making her appear "more seductive." However, in a 2007 study in European Urology, high heels were shown to facilitate pelvic floor muscle activity in women with stress urinary incontinence due to an enhanced pelvic tilt. While benefits of the footwear exist,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in the past several decades, more and more studies have been suggesting that this chic footwear is poor for the wearer's health.
Effect on the bodyWearing high-heeled shoes causes a decreased stride length. According to a 2003 study in the "Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, this decrease in stride length results from changes in the leg joint kinetics,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such as increased ankle plantarflexion, and changes in the relative orientation of the skeletal structures in the ankle,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], all resulting in a decreased stride length.
Wearing high heels also causes the wearer to have an anterior shift in their center of mass, putting more pressure on the ball of the foot. This causes the wearer to be slightly off balance, resulting in compensatory changes in the body posture,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such as realignment of the hips and spine.
Metatarsalgia, or joint pain in the ball of the foot, can result from extended pressure on the front portion of the foot.
Foot and Ankle DeformitiesSeveral different foot deformities can result from wearing high heels. One type is formation of a bunion. This bony growth on the inside edge of the big toe results from tight fitting shoes forcing the wearer's big toe to angle in toward the other toes. This deformity can be accompanied by joint pain or red calloused skin on the joint at the base of the big toe.
Hammertoes may also result from wearing high heels. A hammertoe develops due to a constricted shoe toebox pushing the smaller toes into a bent position at the middle joint and the muscles in these toes become incapable of straightening,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], even when not wearing shoes.
Another common and similar deformity is the mallet toe, which only differs in its location of the bend: While the hammertoe is curled at the middle joint, the mallet toe is at the upper joint.
Additionally, wearing high heels causes the Achilles' Tendon to shorten and tighten,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which can ultimately result in heel pain or weakness in the tendon, making it prone to injury during exertion.
Knee ProblemsAccording to Dr. D. Casey Kerrigan's 2005 study on high heels and the progression of knee osteoarthritis, wearing shoes with even a slight heel creates an increase in the torque at the knee that flat shoes does not create. This torque has been directly related to the development and/or progression of knee osteoarthritis.
It is this repetitive loading at the knee that has been tied to the development of osteoarthritis, especially during walking. In time, osteoarthritis gradually worsens, and while there is no cure for it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], treatments have been developed to help ease pain and discomfort.
