    Hey Girls,

    I came across this article "How to cure a high heel hangover"...and it reminded me of last Wednesday when I walked (well tried to walk) in a pair of new high heeled boots. A glorious shade of purple but a night mare to walk in....these boots were not made to walk in...and the day after my feet were sore.

    So I am guessing lots of you other girls have had the same problem...and may have other tips as to how to alleviate the pain.

    hugs

    thanks for that Pauline, very interesting article.
    I spend a lot of time stretching my calf muscles and it does help.
    Also I use a foot balm to keep the skin soft

    Valerie,

    For all of us I think. I have ingrowing toenails after wearing heels a lot over the last 15 years...I used to go out 3-4 times a week. These days its not so frequent and I often wear flats. And indoors bare feet a lot.
    hugs

    at this moment in time, due to illness that is causing me to have pins & needles constantly and muscle spasms, it means alot to take care of my feet as I can not wlak in high heels for ages, admittly kne high boots with a block heel or cuban heel is better trying to walk in stillettos as walking in stillettos are a form of art anyway, not even some real girls or women can walk in them so we do a damn good job in way we do.
