Tight Shoes
Shoes help the feet in avoiding diseases, injuries, and deformities. They allow the feet to move while in a comfortable position. However, in some cases, shoes can be a source of injuries. When the shoes and the shape of the feet don’t match, it injures the foot. This is why it is important to choose the right size of shoes to wear. Comfort should be more of a priority than fashion.
The narrow toe box is a type of shoe that caters to the need of the feet to keep itself in a firm and secure position. A toe box is a part of a shoe where the toes are placed. Typically, running shoes have a narrow toe box to smash the toes together.
The smashing of the toes can generally cause injuries and deformities in the feet. In addition, it can lead to a greater chance of having bunions, hammer toes, and soreness, especially after physical activity, prompting the nails to become more susceptible due to their weakening. In addition, these injuries may serve as an opening for fungal infections to enter and spread easily.
