From the news: High heels and traumatic injury

Just in time for the controversy over Jurassic Park’s leading female star fighting dinosaurs in heels, a recent study out of the University of Alabama at Birmingham found high-heeled-shoe-related injuries have nearly doubled between 2002 and 2012. In 2011 alone, there were over 19,000 reports of injury due to heels. More than three quarters of the injuries were to the ankle or foot, and the most common diagnosis was a sprain or strain. Is the risk of an ankle sprain convincing enough to toss your heels? Probably not.
