Adorning your feet with beautiful high heel shoes can cause you to develop unsightly foot deformities.\u00a0 When shoes keep the feet positioned in an unnatural way for an extended period of time, some foot muscles contract while others weaken.\u00a0 Over time, the toe position can become too rigid and painful that only surgery can fix it.<\/p>\n

The good news is that you can help prevent the development of foot deformities like hammertoes (a contracted toe).\u00a0 Before they can even develop, or while they are still flexible.\u00a0 There are some foot exercises you can do at home for prevention.<\/p>\n

Here are 3 simple foot exercises you can do regularly to help keep your feet looking toe-rific.<\/p>\n

\"Marble<\/a><\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 MARBLE PICK-UPS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Use your toes to pick up marbles and place them in a bowl.<\/p>\n

\"Towel<\/a><\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 TOWEL CRUNCHES<\/strong><\/p>\n

Crunch a small towel with your toes.\u00a0 For added resistance, perform it on carpeting or place a weight on top of the opposite end of the towel.<\/p>\n

\"Wear<\/a><\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 TOE SEPARATOR POSITIONING<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wear toe separators to help position the toes back from being contracted.\u00a0 You can even try sleeping with them on your feet.<\/p>\n

Visit your local podiatrist who can also prescribe special pads and splints that can help prevent and relieve hammertoe deformities.\u00a0 They may even discover that your hammertoes are caused by other conditions like arthritis, stroke, or a neurological problem.<\/p>\n

There are other things you can do to avoid foot problems later on.\u00a0 One is wearing high heels in moderation.\u00a0 Reserve them only for special occasions.\u00a0 Heels are dress shoes that should not be worn by someone who works on their feet all day.\u00a0 Another thing is to keep the heel height below 2 inches. \u00a0 This will help reduce the pressure placed on the front of the feet.<\/p>\n

So, don’t forget to gather your equipments to exercise your feet.\u00a0 Your toes need to be strong to fight the high heel forces that can cause hammertoes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
