The Sun reports that podiatrists are alarmed at the rising number of foot injuries caused by ballet flats and flip flops. They say flat shoes can cause severe foot pain, bunions, shooting pains in the shins, back aches and even arthritis.
"Over the last three to four years we’ve had a significant increase in the number of problems caused be wearing flat shoes such as ballet pumps or flip flops. I’ve seen three or four just in the last week,” Mike O’Neill, spokesman for the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists, said.
Wear a two-inch heel instead, say Italian researchers. By wearing a higher heel, you'll not only have fewer foot problems but better sex, too.
They say the posture you have while wearing heels helps strengthen the pelvic floor muscles.
