High Heels: Problems
built 642 days ago
"Bony problems" are such a big part of foot problems that podiatrists even have a high-heel nickname for one condition - a pump bump. "It's a big old bump on the back of your heel," Chiarelli says. "It's like a callus of bone on the back of the heel from the shoe rubbing the bone."

If you wear high heeled shoes for years, the Achilles tendon tends to get shorter. This means that if you ever try wearing flat shoes, you will have problems. This is due to the tendon becoming too short for flat shoes. This can be repaired over time, but with continued use of heels, the problem is only likely to become worse.
