Is walking in tall heels bad for my ankles?
Are tall heels the cause of my ankle pain? What are the tallest heels I can wear to not hurt my ankles?

High heels may look fashionable and classy but they are very bad for not only your ankles but your whole body. The position your foot sits while wearing high heel shoes throws your whole body out of alignment. From the way you walk to your balance, everything gets out of its normal position.
While wearing high heels your foot is pointed downward which places a lot more pressure on your forefoot. This causes the rest of your body to adjust in order for you to keep your balance. While walking in high heels its like walking on a balance beam and just like a beam there is no support for you if you fall.
When it comes to wearing heels, you should only wear them on special occasions. If you are going to wear them keep them under 1 ½ inches. Your feet with thank you and so will the rest of your body!
