Pain in the legs and back: popular summer shoes were dangerous to health

Summer sandals (sometimes called shale in Russia) turned out to be hazardous to health.

According to specialist Camilla Long from Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in North Carolina, it often happens that a person bends his toes to fix the sneakers, which leads to changes in his natural gait. It can damage the calf muscles and heel tendons, as well as cause back pain, writes Lenta.ru report with reference to The Sun.

Moreover, plantar fasciitis may develop over time (a disease whose main symptom is pain in the heel, which occurs or worsens during exercise - Ed.), And after about a year it takes to recover.

To prevent problems with the heel tendon, it is necessary to choose sandals that, when walking, bend in the same place as the foot. Otherwise, the legs do not get enough support, which leads to excessive tension in the heel tendon and injury.

Experts advised not to wear the shales, if you have to spend a long time on your feet, and also not to drive a car into them, since one of the sandals can get stuck between the pedals.
