The Manchester Foot and Ankle Clinic at The Bridgewater Hospital Manchester
If you’ve ever suffered the indignity of walking home at 3am with your high heels in your hands, you know how painful sore feet can be. It’s not a sexy topic but even A list celebrities such as Victoria Beckham cannot escape the ravages of wearing killer heels for years (it’s alleged she has painful bunions on both feet).
High heels not only affect the cosmetic aspects of the feet such as blisters and hard skin but can also affect the biomechanics of the gait too – in other words the way you walk, which in turn can lead to adaptation and long-term problems with the bone structure.
If you regularly take part in high impact sports such as football, squash, running, or rugby you’ll be aware that after particularly strenuous sessions, foot and ankle injuries can be sustained.
Of course not all foot and ankle problems are caused by wearing high heels and sport. The Manchester Foot and Ankle Centre (MFAC) based at the private Bridgewater Hospital in Manchester, has a team of experts who are able to assess and correct foot and ankle disorders with their complete spectrum of diagnostic and surgical and non-surgical treatments.
