問題詳情：

    Check out any woman's wardrobe and you will be sure to find at least one pair of high heel shoes there. After all, which woman can     36     wearing something that makes her look taller and her legs     37     longer? Unfortunately, those high heel shoes women love so much     38     their name, and can end up doing more damage than you can imagine     39     the spine(脊柱) and lower back—if care is not taken.

    Murlowska, a therapist(治療師 ), is     40     with the consequences of wearing high heels. A majority of     41     who arrive at Murlowska's office come to her with back and lower back problems. Very often the     42     are the result of not walking properly in high heels or choosing the    43     kind of footwear.

"I know women love wearing high heels but they can     44     extreme damage to the body," Murlowska says, "I recently had a patient who had a terrible fall while walking in high heels and twisted her     45    . She did not think much of it at the time, but the next morning she     46     up to find her knee swollen and painful."

    If a woman walks in heels     47     than five centimeters, several pressure points develop in various parts of the body which experience     48    . Essentially, a woman wearing high heels is attempting to     49     her entire body on a very small area. This causes extreme stress on the muscles of the legs     50     increasing the chances of the ankle getting twisted. This can     51     damage to the knee ligaments(韌帶) and tendons(腱). High heels force the     52     into an unnatural down-turned position. Consequently, the rest of the body has to     53     itself in order to stay balanced. The lower part of the spine as well as the hip bone tilts(傾斜) forward while the     54     spine and the neck tilts back in order to maintain balance."

    Over a period of time, the hip bone also gets     55     because of the change in the center of gravity as a result of wearing high heels.
