In the old days, European women fainted because of too-tight corsets, and Japanese women could barely walk because of bound feet. But if we thought that fashion trends that are not the most recommended for health are a thing of the distant past, we were very wrong. Even today, women sacrifice their health in order to be as attractive as possible and keep up with fashion trends. If we care at least a little about our health, let's quickly get rid of the eight 'unhealthy' fashion items below...
Tight wings
Excessively tight skirts with high waists and trendy "bodycon" dresses put pressure on the nerves and cause unpleasant back pain.
Heavy earrings
If worn too often, heavy earrings stretch the earlobes, stretch the holes in the ears and even deform them. Let's exchange heavy earrings for a light and elegant pair of earrings.
Tight jeans
Tight jeans or the popular "skinny" jeans compress the nerves in the groin area and can cause tingling, pain and even bladder problems.
Thongs
If thongs (and other underwear) are not made of breathable material (e.g. cotton), we expose ourselves to the risk of fungal infections. The next time we buy underwear, pay attention to the material from which it is made.

Corsets and body shapers are too tight for everyday use. We save them for special occasions, because this type of tight clothing compresses nerves, can damage internal organs and affect bladder problems.
