Doctor Warns of Health Risks from One Household Habit

Physiotherapist: walking in slippers can lead to weakened foot muscles.

One household habit can lead to serious health problems, claims physiotherapist Maria Jesus Lechuga. Her warning was published by El Confidencial.

Lechuga urged people to stop walking around the house in slippers. The danger of this habit lies in the fact that such footwear restricts the natural movements of the feet. Additionally, over time, a person's muscles will begin to weaken, the doctor warned.

At the same time, walking around the house barefoot or in socks, on the contrary, activates the muscles of the foot, the specialist added. In the long term, this habit can also lead to improved posture, concluded Lechuga.
