High heels can shrink muscle,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
It also thickens her Achilles tendon -- which attaches the calf muscle to the heel -- by 22 percent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], according to the study, which was published Thursday in the Journal of Experimental Biology.
These changes alter the resting position of the ankle,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], causing the foot to point down more than normal. "This stretches and increases the tension in the muscles and tendons,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], [causing] discomfort."
Fortunately,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], only die-hard fashionistas appear to be at risk. Discomfort "will primarily occur in women wearing almost exclusively high-heeled shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," says Csapo. "But it's probably wise to wear different kinds of shoes. The study was small,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the researchers didn't take other personal habits, such as exercise,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], into account. Gently pull back on the band while pushing against it with your toes.
Stand on a step,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], facing up. Keep your toes on the step and slowly lower your heels until you feel your calf muscles stretching.
Slowly make a circle with your toes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], alternately flexing and pointing your foot.
Try to pick things up with your toes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. (This will help strengthen your feet,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].)
Although they are no guarantee,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], exercises such as these will help minimize the side effects of high heels and may even prevent injury,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Garber says.
"Say you twist your ankle a little bit,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," she says. "The Achilles tendon being stiffer and the calf muscle being shortened might make a woman more susceptible to injury."
