Did you see that you were sick because of the worn soles? Have you carefully observed the soles of shoes?

When buying shoes, don't just pursue the brand, but ignore whether the shoes fit. Improper shoes do great harm to feet and affect people's physical and physiological curves. The problem of thick calf muscles, O-legs and X-legs is also related to personal walking posture, do you know? You can see whether your body is healthy or not from the soles of your shoes.

1, sole wear indicates health.

Usually, if the newly bought shoes wear off less than 20% in half a year, they are generally regarded as normal. If you wear off 20%~30% within 3 months, it is not a question of walking posture, and you can basically judge that there is something wrong with your body.

Common causes are hip joint diseases, such as congenital subluxation of hip joint, dysplasia of hip joint and scoliosis.

1 There is more wear on the lateral side of the sole-knee cartilage is worn, which is easy to cause arthritis.

The lateral wear of the sole is serious, which may be due to the outward separation of the knee joints of the two legs, resulting in a certain angle between the calf and the tibia. In severe cases, O-shaped legs or "internal splays" will be formed.

If you walk in a figure of eight, it means that the toe angle is too large, and after a long time, your knees will move outward and your legs will be deformed. With the increase of age, it can lead to knee joint pain and accelerate joint degeneration, and even cause lumbar discomfort.

2 More wear on the inner side of the sole-accelerating joint degeneration and causing waist discomfort.

The serious wear on the lateral side of the sole may be due to the contraction of the knee joints of both legs, which leads to the outward bending of the calf.

This way of walking can easily lead to joint sprain and injury, and long-term uneven stress will also lead to the wear of cartilage outside the knee joint, leading to arthritis. At the same time, it will put pressure on the hip bone, which will lead to bone pain when sitting for a long time and form X-shaped legs.

3 asymmetric wear of the soles of the feet-uneven stress on the legs

Most of them are caused by uneven stress on the knee. The most typical symptom is different leg lengths.

When one leg is injured, it will deliberately avoid exerting force on the injured side, forming a protective claudication, which will make the force on both legs uneven, resulting in obvious differences in the wear of both soles. Some people worry that the injured part will be pulled again when walking after sports injury, so dragging the legs will also cause lumbar deformation.

2. Protective claudication after injury

These seven walking postures are the most harmful to health.

According to orthopedic experts, sole wear is also related to walking posture. If you walk incorrectly, it will not only be harmful to your health, but also lead to some diseases.

1 bow your head and hunch over-it is harmful to muscles, cervical vertebrae and heart and lungs.

When walking, bow your head and bow your neck and shoulders forward, which will change the S-shape of the normal physiological curvature of the spine, and the surrounding muscle ligaments and soft tissues will be in a stiff state for a long time, leading to the onset of myofascitis on both sides of the spine.

After the spine is deformed, in order to support the weight of the head, the neck, shoulders and waist will bear considerable pressure, which will easily cause muscle soreness in these three parts and thighs, leading to cervical spondylosis. When walking, the heart rate increases and breathing increases. Therefore, hunching down will make the chest unable to open, affecting cardiopulmonary function.

2 internal and external splays-forming O-shaped or X-shaped legs

Generally speaking, a slight internal or external personality will not damage the bones, but walking like this for a long time will affect your health.

Walking in the figure of eight is easy to accumulate more pressure on the outside of the foot, increase the chance of the outside of the foot contacting the ground, change the original position of the foot contacting the ground, and increase the pressure on the joints. Over time, it will lead to bone deformation and pain in the leg, forming an O-shaped leg.

Taking the figure of eight indicates that the toe angle is too large. Over time, the knees will move outward and the legs will become X-shaped, which will lead to pain in the knees and ankles, damage to the leg muscles and accelerate joint degeneration.

3 Walking without swinging your arms-causing back pain and injury.

When walking, when the left leg moves forward, the spine will rotate to the right and the right arm will swing with it. And vice versa, Dallas goes to the auditorium, so when you walk, your arms should swing naturally.

However, many people, especially young people, play with their mobile phones when walking, or put their hands in their pockets when walking in cold weather, which leads to back pain and even injuries.

The fourth step is too big-it is easy to strain the ligament.

When a person wants to speed up when walking, the most natural reaction is to increase the pace of progress and rely on the front foot to walk a longer distance. However, walking in this way is easy to strain the medial thigh ligament and cramp the foot, and it is impossible to improve the walking speed. In addition, for people with poor knee joints, taking too big steps will aggravate joint injuries.

5 Pelvis leans forward-causing pelvic deformation

Some people walk with a straight back and look full of energy, but if you look closely, you will find that their waist is folded backwards, which is also called "pelvis leaning forward" in medicine.

This is mostly caused by the imbalance between abdominal muscles and back muscles. Walking with the pelvis leaning forward for a long time will increase the burden on the lower back and neck, cause pain and shoulder and neck pain, and even lead to pelvic deformation and visceral prolapse.

Walk and kick-be careful your legs get thicker.

Some people seem to be afraid that dirty water or things on the ground will stain their shoes or trousers, so they have formed the habit of kicking them away. Lean forward when you kick. When walking, only the toes are kicked to the ground, then the knees are bent and the heels are raised. If you have the habit of kicking, you'd better correct it so as not to thicken the whole leg.

7 excessive knee bending when walking-iliopsoas degeneration

Kneeling walking is more common in the elderly, mainly because the trunk muscles are in a state of overall decline, showing an unsupported state, which leads to knee bending and requires muscle support from the front thigh. In this way, the iliopsoas muscles deep in the abdomen will weaken, the trunk muscles will not be exercised, and they will fall into a vicious circle of aging.

2. Tips for choosing shoes

1 trick: it is best to choose shoes from 3 pm to 6 pm, because your feet will swell slightly at this time. If the size chosen at this time is not too small, you can wear it at other times of the day. Try standing, because your feet will be slightly bigger when standing than when sitting. When trying it on, you can't just wear it in front of the mirror and buy it. You must walk a few steps back and forth and carefully feel the stability and size of the shoes.

The second trick: bring clean stockings when trying on shoes, which is convenient to put on and take off when trying on shoes (especially boots with tight ankles and legs) and avoid the embarrassment of trying on shoes.

The third trick: about two-thirds of people have different feet. Remember which is long and which is short. Try on both feet when trying on shoes. Choose shoes according to slightly bigger feet. You can't choose shoes or entrust people to buy shoes simply based on shoe size. Be sure to try it on yourself, because the specific size of shoes will vary according to the standards of shoe last, style or brand model.

The fourth measure: feet will expand with heat and contract with cold in different seasons, so when you buy discount shoes in winter and summer, you might as well try on a suitable size slightly smaller than that in summer.

The fifth measure: the ideal size is at least: ten toes can move freely in the shoes, the padding is comfortable and the internal space is moderate; The radian of the sole surface and the foot depression is very close, and the ankle bone and toes can't touch the shoes; There should be some room for movement in the front foot. If the heel can reach the distance of one finger between the toe and the heel counter, this size is just right.

The upper surface of the sole of the heel should be well attached to the heel, and you can't slide left and right when walking; Look from top to bottom to see if the arch of the foot is consistent with the radian of the center of the shoe, and confirm whether the tightness of the foot circumference is appropriate.

The sixth trick: don't let your feet accommodate a pair of shoes that don't fit the size because of the temptation of the season-end discount or because you really like it. Fashion women's shoes with too small size have limited support even if they are worn for a long time. The temporary scenery of the feet may cause a series of diseases such as corns, blisters, foot pain, leg pain and back pain.

Seventh measure: If the shoes in front of you have the design you dream of, the radian is almost perfect, emitting the most fashionable colors and the price is reasonable. You fell in love with it at first sight Unfortunately, the material is not good. I advise you to choose passing by. Within the scope of economic conditions, it is recommended that you choose leather shoes with full leather upper, genuine leather lining (smooth seamless line) and genuine leather sole. Because leather is breathable, sweat-absorbent and elastic, it can better fit your foot shape, and it is more comfortable to wear. Leather soles and heels can also reduce noise.

A pair of shoes doesn't fit, which will affect people's normal walking. If you walk incorrectly, it will hurt your joints for a long time. So when you buy shoes, you must try them on yourself. It is difficult to walk in uncomfortable shoes. You can see that your walking posture is correct from the place where the soles are badly worn.
