Worry About Flip Flops

Originally wanted to wear flip flops to become casual and fashionable, but did not expect this pair of shoes to make the toes become sore, red and swollen, and the toe joints also hurt the skin. What is more indignant is that in the 9 day of heavy rain, the pair of slippers still let their owners run and run in the wind and rain.

Yesterday, Huang Lin dropped her flip flops into the trash can, and she said she had suffered toe strain.

Emancipating the feet and falling out of trouble

Huang Lin is 29 years old. He lives at 50 Kumho Road, Yubei District. He is a teacher.

When I go to work, I wear formal shoes and high heels. After a day, my shoes are full of moisture. My feet are smelly and my feet are often torn.

In the summer vacation, Huang Lin can "emancipate the feet" at last.

Huang Lin bought a pair of beautiful flip flops, which bare her skin in the air, cool and smelly, and felt more comfortable. So, walking around the street and shopping in the supermarket, the pair of slippers went with her.

About four or five days later, Huang Lin's feet became sore and his toe was red. He also hurt his skin.

On the seventh day, Huang Lin cut her toenail in the evening. She was surprised to find that the thumb and index finger were bent down. She pinched her thumb, stiff and accompanied by pain.

At first, Huang Lin didn't put his heart on it. He thought that wearing new shoes had to rub his skin, so long as the time went on, it would be good to wear cocoons.

On the morning of 9, Huang Lin stroll around the street.

Suddenly, the storm came and the rain was running across the street.

Because he didn't bring an umbrella, Huang Lin hurried to drive home, and ran in the wind and rain wearing this pair of slippers.

Unexpectedly, the sole of the foot slipped, and the pair of slippers flew out of the yard. Huang Lin fell heavily into the rain, scraping a large piece of leather on his ankle, and grim under the rain.

A lot of flip flops.

The doctor made timely treatment for Huang Lin's wound, but she kept blaming it for the ghost.

Huang Lin said he could not wrestle without the heavy rain.

"Don't blame the weather. Blame your slippers."

Hearing Huang Lin's complaints, the doctor told her that these slippers were the fundamental culprit of her wrestling. If he wore long flip flops, he would cause foot muscle injuries, tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, dislocation of the phalanges, bone hyperplasia and even bone spurs.

Seriously affecting her health, the doctor advised her not to wear these slippers.

The doctor's words made Huang Lin feel very surprised. How could she be willing to give her this pair of casual, fashionable, light and beautiful flip flops? The doctor told her to walk in flip flops, and her toes curled up for a long time to "grab" the sole, causing the strain of the tendon under her toes.

After listening to the doctor's advice, Huang Linji reluctantly allowed the pair of slippers to be laid off and put on sandals with heels.

The past and present of slippers

The first pair of slippers, many wooden, also known as "wooden clog", "pull the board" or "Da Da Ban".

Dongfang Shuo's "Whispering language" contains: "in the spring and Autumn period, it was pushed away and hidden away from the trees, and the public servants lamented the wood and thought it was a cod."

The "slippers" originally written in historical books are just for the mourning of the dead, and nothing to do with leisure.

"Da Da Ban" was first popular in the southern and Northern Dynasties of China, and Xie Lingyun had been reconstructing it, so it was also known as Xie Gong CAI.

In 1950s, the first pair of plastic slippers came out in France.

Our country also produced plastic slippers in 1960.

Plastic foam is used as the material.

Xu Ke, a Qing man, thinks that slippers are not obstructed, and that they should be set on their feet. They are undoubtedly emancipation of the feet. They are free to drag and take them lightly. This reflects the spirit of slippers free and relaxed.

Face to face

Wearing no flip flops does not exceed one hour indoors.

Reporter: what are the hazards of flip flops?

He Jianhua: the flip flops have only two thin tapes, which are "human" shaped toes. First of all, the body is unstable and prone to wrestling.

Secondly, the sole of the shoe is too thin and very flat, so when walking, people will unconsciously use their toes to pick up the sole of the shoe, and the toes will be in a long period of flexion. This will lead to numbness, stiffness, Achilles tendon pain and other symptoms. A long time will cause Achilles tendon strain and nervous inflammation.

The three is the arch of the foot with radiant arch as a natural shock absorber, but the design of flip flops and soles on the market is mostly flat and can not fit into the foot shape, so that the foot arch is not adequately supported, which can cause the foot load to increase, which can lead to the loss and softening of the ligaments and tendons, and also make the feet and knees easy to strain, and affect the arch of the arch to cause flatfoot, and even cause lesions in the waist, spine and cervical vertebrae.

Reporter: who are most vulnerable to flip flops?

He Jianhua: herringbone slippers are more harmful to obese people and young children. The heavier and heavier the obese people are, the greater the pressure on their feet. If they wear no flip flops again, it will be easier for them to get hurt and get flat feet.

Young children are not fully developed because their feet are not fully developed. They often wear flip flops without protection and support. They will cause bad walking habits and habits, and the development of their feet may also be affected.

Reporter: how to avoid the harm of flip flops?

He Jianhua: 1, it's best not to wear flip flops to go out, and do not wear more than 1 hours every time indoors.

2, teenagers should not wear flip flops.

This will accelerate the degradation of cartilage and cartilage in the ankle and knee, resulting in bone hyperplasia.

3, don't be tempted by the beautiful appearance of high heels and flip flops. Even wear them carefully, such as shoes with a foot arch and a height of about an inch.

4. Do not wear flip flops worn by rubber or plastic.

These synthetic materials are poorly ventilated, irritating to the skin, easy to cause skin allergies, and even form allergic dermatitis. Their feet should be treated as soon as possible due to strain.
