Winter Health Guide: Adolescent Girls Should Not Wear High Heels.

Girls in puberty stage have more cartilage components in their bone structure, which contain more water and organic matter and less inorganic salts. The bones are soft and easily deformed. Girls who wear high heels early can cause morphological changes in the pelvis and feet. The pelvis is a bone annulus composed of sacrum, coccyx, left and right hip bones, ligaments and joints. The binding process of this bone ring starts from 7 years old, and it is basically fixed at the age of 25. The pelvis is an important structure for human body to transmit gravity. When wearing flat shoes, the whole body weight is borne by the whole foot. When wearing high heels, the body weight mainly falls on the sole of the feet, which destroys the normal gravity transfer load line, aggravates the pelvic load, and easily causes stenosis of the pelvic floor, which brings difficulties to the delivery of adults.

In addition, wearing high-heeled shoes may make the pelvis difficult to detect transposition, affecting the normal combination of the bone ring, resulting in pelvic deformity. The mature bone of the foot is about 15~16 years old. The size of the shoe directly affects the growth of the foot bone. Wearing high heels earlier will cause the foot bone to complete the ossification process according to the angle of high heel shoes. It will easily cause metatarsophalangeal joint deformation, metatarsal fracture and other foot diseases. These diseases can cause foot pain, and can affect walking and activities when severe. Therefore, adolescent girls should not wear high heels, especially those with high heels of 7~8 centimeters. From the point of view of biomechanics, it is advisable to wear shoes with heels or shoes with height less than 3 centimeters.
