What are the dangers of wearing flip-flops

In summer, everyone wears slippers. After returning home, we take off our leather shoes and sneakers, get rid of fatigue, and put on light slippers, which is very relaxing. There are many styles of slippers. When it comes to choosing, some people prefer flip-flops. Their appearance seems to look more stylish than other slippers. However, the flip-flops worn by many people are actually not that good. Do you know what are the dangers of wearing flip-flops?

Disadvantage 1: It can easily cause toe strain and pelvic pain

1. The soles of flip-flops look very soft and comfortable, but the soles of most flip-flops are too flat and too thin, and cannot provide strong support for the arch of the foot. Walking for a long time can easily lead to fatigue of the calf and foot muscles.

2. When wearing flip-flops, the too flat soles make people tend to lean backwards. When walking fast, the human body tends to lean the center of gravity forward, the knees will naturally bend, and the spinal muscles of the pelvis and waist will also change with this change. Over time, it may cause fatigue of the knee joints, pelvis and spinal muscles, and may also cause pain in the lower back and lower limbs.

Disadvantage 2: Children's feet are easily deformed when wearing flip-flops

1. Without the protection of the shoe upper, children's toes can easily touch protruding hard objects such as the bed leg and get injured.

2. If children wear flip-flops when they are growing up, it is easy for them to grow out of shape.

Disadvantage 3: It is easy to rub your feet

1. Flip-flops do not have a complete shoe design, but only two thin straps, or a V-shaped belt across the toes. When walking on uneven roads or in the wild, the ankles lose protection and are prone to trauma or cuts.

2. Since the shoes and feet are connected by only two thin straps, you can only move forward by relying on the strength of your toes. Therefore, when wearing flip-flops, the forefoot and toes will be unconsciously tensed for a long time. If this twisted state continues for a long time, it will cause strain or even inflammation of the toe flexor tendon.

3. The constant hitting of the shoes on the back of the foot will cause the skin on the heel to harden and crack, affecting the appearance.
