But the health problems associated with heels are never ending. We may see Angelina and Nicole kidman wearing 4  inch heels and running around in screen but it is not so easy in real life. Here are a few tips to avoid pain from heels-

• Use an antiperspirant – even if your sole helps in reducing sweat and absorbing it,  a little bit of moisture in the air can cause the straps of your shoes or sandals to irritate and chafe  your skin. Thus resulting in blisters.
• Most important of all, Buy shoes that fits! Even a a few extra pounds can alter your shoe size.
• Buy leather shoes and avoid synthetic. Leather is more easygoing
• Always buy shoes at evenings. Swelling can cause dramatic change in shoe sizes.
• Avoid really high heels. If you use heels in your day to day life, don’t exceed your heels by 3 inch.
• Wear a regular heel height. Unstable heel height can effect your Achilles tendon
• Get a regular pedicure.
• Stretch your toes in regular intervals. This helps improve blood circulation to your toes which are the poor bearers of your heels’ cruelty.
• Core strengthening exercises will help calm down your feet after wearing heels 
• Dip your feet in warm salted water for about ten mins. after that, gently massage your feet using a pain reliever (if you experience severe pain) or massage a moisturizing lotion to help your skin and feet be relieved of the stress from heels.
