Though everyone is criticizing High-heeled shoes To the harm of the foot, but the heel height does not fall or rise. Recently, pop queen Lady gaga After wearing 23 centimeters of super high heels, many Fans Follow suit immediately. However, the opportunity of "hate the sky is high", the chance of sprain, fall and wrist fracture is greatly increased, and there will be ugly and uncomfortable hallux valgus for a long time.

　 Hallux valgus can cause foot pain.

The air hostess Xiaoxiao was recently troubled by foot pain, so she asked for a doctor's leave. When she took off those beautiful high-heeled shoes, the doctor knew her annoyance -- hallux valgus.

"What we mean is hallux valgus, in fact, the big toe of the foot is deflected to the direction of the little toe, and the inclination is more than 15 degrees." "The hallux valgus is common in middle-aged and elderly people. Hereditary, traumatic and rheumatic causes can lead to this disease," said Song Wei Dong, associate head of foot and ankle surgery at the joint surgery branch of the Guangdong Provincial Medical Association and associate professor of bone surgery at Sun Yixian Memorial Hospital of Zhongshan University. If young women are also suffering from this disease, it is the biggest incentive to wear too tight shoes, too high heels and too sharp toe tips.

Xiaoxiao is only 27 years old, but because of high heels all year round, the hallux valgus is getting worse day after day. At the beginning, only the joints of the thumb were protruding outward, and then the shoes were hurt, even the shoes were extruded and deformed.

Professor Song said, hallux valgus does not necessarily hurt. Only when the formation of the bursa of thumb is aggravated or the joint degenerative inflammation occurs, the inside and sole of the thumb will feel pain. Therefore, as long as you find your feet thumbs in the direction of your little finger, you should be alert to hallux valgus.

　　 Heel more than 4 centimeters, aggravating hallux valgus.

Once the hallux valgus appears, the front toe will widen, and the shoe will inevitably be stretched and deformed. Professor Song said, with the heel increased, the pressure on the front foot will gradually increase. Wearing high heels for a long time will bring all kinds of symptoms, such as extrusion and friction. Toe will easily appear skin lesions such as corns, verruca plantaris, calluses, tinea pedis and ulcers. Due to the change of foot bearing point, the function of the arch is reduced, and it is easy to cause premature degeneration of the ankle, knee and spine.

The higher the heel is, the more obvious the symptoms will be. The reason is that wearing high-heeled shoes can increase the strength of the front palm and aggravate the hallux valgus. At the same time, it also changes the force line and bearing mode of the lower limbs, pelvis and lumbar vertebrae. It can not reduce the impact of the walking jump caused by the normal arch, but also cause the stability to fall, and it is easy to sprain and fall easily.

Therefore, Professor Song believes that to protect the feet from the hallux valgus, it is best to wear only 2 centimeters of low heel shoes. Such shoes are beneficial to the formation and anti concussion of the arch, but also restrict excessive steering activities and increase the stability of activities. It should be emphasized that "hate the sky high" must not be worn.

　　 Correct shoes and hallux valgus by choosing suitable shoes.

Hallux valgus is completely preventable. Experts say young women with hallux valgus tend to have no pain in hallux valgus if they choose shoes correctly.

Professor Song said that if the hallux valgus deformity is not obvious and the pain is not serious, it can be solved by changing the way of wearing shoes and habits, placing padding or rehabilitating physical therapy.

Of course, hallux valgus can also be treated surgically, and its methods are said to be varied, but there is no most perfect and mature surgical procedure. Experts pointed out that only when the thumb joint is found to be swollen and painful, and the thumb deviated laterally, the lesion may go to a more serious degree (for example, unable to walk) before surgery is needed.

　 Tips: experts teach you to wear shoes properly.

Because the work needs to wear high heels, it is recommended to wear 2-4 cm high heel shoes, the size of shoes should be appropriate, the toe tips are loose, the toes are free to move, and the front toe should have 1 centimeters of space, preferably bandage shoes. It's not too long to wear high heels. 2-3 hours is better. If it is not convenient to change shoes, you must rest for half an hour every 2-3 hours to relieve foot fatigue.

In addition, if you have to wear high-heeled shoes, it is best to use toe pad, sheath or orthodontic tape under the guidance of a doctor.
