I presently have Knee pain, Will it cause me consequences later if I continue wearing Heel shoes?

I didn't had knee pain for a while. I wonder if using heel shoe all day -8hrs. is causing it again. Will it cause me consequences later as i get older?

knee pain has many causes.it could be rheumatism,overweight,high level of uric acid,age.


wearing shoes with 2in.heel and above especially if you are standing most of the time could affect your knee.


i usually wear shoes with 1 to 1 1/2 in.heel and it helps,but still if i stand too long and walked for some distance,my knees also hurt.so,i learned not to overdo it.
Reply:It is known that wearing heels is not good for your knees but I'm not sure exactly what the long term effects are. If it is already hurting that can't be good. On your days off wear sneakers and try to only wear heels a couple days per week, flats look nice too and sandal season will be in soon so you can give them a try too. If the pain doesn't go away it is best to see your doctor to get checked out and see what's going on down there.
Reply:Quite probably. I presume you mean high-heeled shoes. Combine these with shoes that have any tendency to pointiness and you are highly likely to get painful bunions too. The high heel forces your foot towards the toe of the shoe and the taper causes your toes to turn inward.





Change to flattish shoes with a wider fitting for more comfort. In fact always buy shoes for comfort first, and fashion second, especially if you want to avoid foot, hip, knee and posture problems in old-age (or even earlier).





BTW - this applies to MEN as well
Reply:if you wear heels alot not only are you doing damage to your knees but you are also doing damage to your lumbar spine... heels may look good on but they are not worth the future consequences...
Reply:it depends on what is the cause for the knee pain. it could be the high heels or the height of the heel. do u have flat feet? is it just your knee or do u get shin pain also? if so then it might be because you have flat feet. or you may just need to stretch out your hamstrings and shin muscles
Reply:It might. If I were u, I would't wear them as much!!!
Reply:Probably. I cannot wear high heels. I did when I was younger! But now I have flat feet and knee and ankle problems. So I try to get the lower heels maybe anything less than 2 inches would help.
Reply:I wear heels every day at least eight hours a day. You may want to talk to a podiatrist though. Mine told me that flip flops are the best kind of shoes to wear. So if I'm not at work, flip flops it is!
