1.理智地选择你的高跟鞋
When you're shopping for fancy footwear, stilettos may catch your eye, but try to buy a heel with a gradual incline—like a platform or wedge—rather than a steep one. According to Dr. J. Scott Rosenthal of Airport Podiatry Group, the more walking you're planning to do, the lower the heel and the wider the toe should be. "If you are going to dinner and a movie, for example, the heel can be high and pointy [since you'll be sitting most of the time]. But an event where standing for more than an hour is involved, a lower heel [less than 3 inches] and a less pointy toe is recommended to avoid overloading the forefoot and toes," Rosenthal tells mental_floss.
