Admittedly, most women can’t live without high heels, but you have to be careful how you walk in them.
According to a report retrieved by HarpersBazaar, a new study reveals that injuries from stillettos are on the rise, especially among young women. Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham estimated that 123,355 high heel–related injuries were treated in emergency rooms from 2002 to 2012, and the rate doubled during the 10-year span.
The good and the bad news is, women in their 20s were most likely to sustain these injuries, and most incidents happened at home, not at work or when out in town. Meaning, you should be extremely careful at home should you wear heels (Safety First).
Another seperate study recently found that wearing heels all day, every day can seriously weaken your ankle muscles, leaving you prone to injury.
