‘Eventually, major accidents such as falls and serious ankle sprains can result without proper maintenance and conditioning.'

“最终，在缺乏适当保养和调节情况下，摔倒和严重的脚踝扭伤等一类的严重状况都有可能发生。

Dr Jee's team studied 40 professional women who wear heels of10cmor higher at least three times a week.

季博士的小组研究了40名职业女性，她们一周至少穿三次鞋跟在10厘米或以上的高跟鞋。

They regularly measured the women's ankle strength, and found that two of the four main muscles started becoming dominant after between one and three years of regular wear.

他们定期测量这些女性的脚踝强度，发现在常穿高跟鞋1到3年不等的情况下，四块主要肌肉的两块开始变得凸出。

They told the International Journal of Clinical Practice: ‘These results suggest that wearing high heels may strengthen ankle muscles at first, but prolonged use [of more than three years] eventually causes a muscular imbalance – a crucial predictor of ankle injury.'

他们对《国际临床实践杂志》表示：“这些结果表明，穿高跟鞋可能最初会使踝关节的肌肉变得强壮，但长期穿高跟鞋(超过3年)最终会导致肌平衡失调，而失调可能会引起踝关节损伤。
