Cold is approaching, and all the fashion and fashionista get warm shoes from the cabinets. Already more than one season are popular Australian boots - Uggs. They are stylish, comfortable, soft and, it would seem comfortable. But, according to the orthopedist Ian McDemott, these felt boots are very harmful to our health.
The foot is not fixed in them, so the wrong gait is started. The sub-sole material leads to the deformation of the foot surface. Soft sole does not shock the heel when walking. And with each step of the foot gets microtrauma. Since the helms do not have a heel, the heel gradually lowers down.
Low foot support increases the diseases of the ankles, knees, hips. With the stress of the limbs, they are more susceptible to stretching. And so that the uggs do not slip, its owner constantly has to strain the leg.
Especially bad uggs for children. Their bones are still growing and can be easily deformed. Excess knees load is conducted to changes in the pelvic bones, provokes the disease of the spine.
Orthopedists are called, if not to refuse completely from the Australian boots, then at least limit their wearing. Doctors offer to wear them no more than a few hours a day, with mandatory breaks.
