Health Tip: Avoid Tight Shoes
By LadyLively on May 19, 2017
Fashion can be stylish without being uncomfortable. Shoes that are too tight can actually injure your feet.
The American Podiatric Medical Association says tight shoes can lead to development of:
- A bunion.
- Corns.
- A hammer toe, in which the middle toe joint curls.
- Crossover toe, in which the second or third toe crosses over the next toe.
- An ingrown toenail.
- Sores, especially among people with diabetes who have foot nerve damage.
