On January 14th this site, US researchers found that wearing running shoes that are popular in the market may be more likely to cause joint strains than barefoot or high-heeled shoes, causing knee, hip, and ankle injuries.
The results of this study are published in the Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Society, Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation.
Easily damaged
The American Fun Science website quoted the head of research on the 12th, and Kathy Kregan, professor of physical therapy and rehabilitation at the University of Virginia, reported that there is no doubt that exercise is good for your health, but running or walking increases the pressure on some joints and may result in knees. The cartilage in the hips and ankles, etc., causes osteoarthritis and causes direct friction between the bones causing pain.
She said that people walking or running should minimize the joints to avoid osteoarthritis.
Previous studies by Kriging and colleagues have shown that women wearing high heels can cause the knee joint to bear more stress than barefoot, which can easily lead to joint damage. Their latest research found that running shoes are more likely to cause joint damage than high-heeled shoes because the cushions in running shoes increase the flexibility and increase the wearing comfort, but also increase the height of the shoes.
