Long boots will cause foot deformation

[This site - shoes and life] When it comes to snow boots, almost every girl's shoe will have a pair, full of velvet or cotton, feet stretched out, and then the cold weather will not freeze. In addition to more and more girls like it, snow boots slowly walk into the men's shoes.

However, behind this warm and fashionable, there are hidden concerns that hurt the body. The British "Daily Mail" article said that shoes can not only be comfortable, long-term wear snow boots, may lead to deformation and a series of injuries.

Relatively large internal space will make the arch more affected

British experts used the term “UGG foot” to describe people who wore UGG snow boots, who walked with eight characters and raised their feet.

Dr. Ian Dursdale, the director of the British College of Orthopaedic Medicine, found that: "The snow boots have a relatively large internal space. When they are put on, there will be a certain degree of sliding in the feet. Whenever you take a step, gravity will follow the foot. The Department spreads out to the surroundings, causing the arch to be subject to greater impact."

The foot is the foundation of the human body and its importance is equivalent to the foundation when building a house. The foundation is unstable and the body's skeletal organs above the feet may be affected. Michael O'Neill, a hospital foot surgery consultant, said that in loose shoes, as the shoe slides inside, the support points on the soles of the foot are unstable and the gravity is unevenly distributed, causing foot and hip joints to mobilize more. Many joints to maintain the balance of the body, over time, will cause knee, back, buttocks, waist and other joint wear and muscle damage.

Flat bottom is not the best little shoes with the best

"The fact that shoes are not only uncomfortable, but also causes toe valgus. This is easy for everyone to understand. But for the harm of loose shoes, everyone is very conscious." Attached to Vice President of the Second Hospital, Director of Orthopedics Deng Zhongliang said that wearing too big shoes will cause the knee joint to be transferred, so that walking will have internal and external characters, which will lead to deformed feet.

Therefore, in general, the best shoes with a little, 2.5 centimeters or so is appropriate; shoes should be slightly loose, about to reach the size of a small finger can be; good shoes also need to protect the arch structure, can reduce the foot burden.

Children are better not to wear snow boots

Snow boots are mostly flat bottoms, and they are particularly comfortable when they are put on the feet. However, this flat, non-curved design is not ergonomic. Although comfortable, but wearing a long time, it will feel very tired. Deng Zhongliang, deputy dean of the Second Affiliated Hospital and director of the orthopaedics department, said that snow boots are best worn as home shoes and do not apply to long-term walking or outdoor sports.

British orthopaedic surgeons also pointed out that the development of children's feet is not complete, especially not suitable for wearing snow boots.

What kind of shoes are good shoes?

Deng Zhongliang told us that a pair of good shoes not only need to be comfortable, but also give full play to the walking function, not fatigue, protect our feet from damage. Looseness should be moderate, it is necessary to fit the foot, but not too tight; soles should have a certain degree of flexibility to adapt to the bending of the foot when walking; the front of the shoe should have enough space for proper toe movement, the highest heel should not exceed 5 Centimeter, preferably 2 cm to 3 cm is better.

Good for your own shoes, should meet the following 3:

1. Toe Height: It is best to choose toe shoes that can be slightly bent in the toe, and at least 0.5 cm to 1 cm of space to allow the toes to move.

2. Hard and wide body: Avoid left and right shaking. The width of the shoes should not be too narrow and there should be 0.5cm of free space.

3. The lower part of the ankle should be soft and the heel must be hard to protect the feet.

Hazard of wearing snow boots

The foot slides in loose shoes. The support points on the soles of the foot are unstable and the gravity is unevenly distributed. For a long time, joints such as knees, back, buttocks, and waist are worn and muscle damage is caused.

The right way to choose a shoe

The body is hard and wide, about the size of a small finger

The lower part of the ankle should be soft and the heel part must be hard

Toe height, at least 0.5 cm to 1 cm space for toe activity

The heel is best at 2 cm to 3 cm

Try it yourself before buying your shoes

● Although the shoe size of different manufacturers is the same, the size and width may not be the same. Buying shoes by number is not necessarily appropriate.

● Try shoes with larger feet. Some people have different sizes of their feet. If the test shoe is recommended to use a larger foot to try.

● Try not to just sit and try, but also to take a few steps to determine whether to fit.

● Prepare different shoes for different needs. Different seasons, different sports, leisure items should buy different shoes.
