A member asked:
Can wearing high heel shoes be bad for your arches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
High heels: Agree with dr lehrman. The arches tend not to be a problem with high heels. Consider however the nonanatomic forces crushing the forefoot & the increased risk of ankle injury with high heels.
