Why was heelys banned?

Because there are too many hidden dangers in heelys.

Previously, because the safety performance of heelys has yet to be appraised by the quality inspection department, experts said that wearing these shoes would easily strain or even deform the leg muscles, and there have been many accidents in which students fell when wearing these shoes.

The municipal and district education committees do not encourage schools to organize recreational and game activities wearing such shoes. Schools should prohibit students from wearing such shoes into the campus, and educate and guide students not to wear such shoes in public places, especially in the streets, in order to avoid injury accidents.

The doctor said that wearing heelys may cause muscle strain

According to Wang Dafu from xuanwu hospital Orthopedics Department, children's bones are still growing. If they are unfortunately fractured, improper treatment may leave sequelae. In addition, this kind of shoes usually slide with the heel, but under normal circumstances, people walk with the big toe root, the little toe root and the heel to support the weight.

If only the heel is in this state for a long time and bears the weight of the whole body, the pressure on the heel is too large, which may cause foot fasciitis. In addition, the toes are always tilted, and the leg muscles are always in a state of tension, which may cause muscle strain or spasm.

However, Wang Dafu also said that as long as work and rest are combined, it will generally not cause harm. So far, he has not encountered any cases caused by excessive use of heelys. According to Ms. He from the Development Department of Beijing Sports Bureau, as a sporting goods for sale, heelys has certain eligibility criteria. A new product should not be sentenced to death for only a few injuries, but should be appraised by an authoritative department.
