It has been the hottest fashion trend for the past few years and even back in the day, but can this fashion trend actually be bad for your health? One doctor says, “Yes!” Skinny jeans, tight belts, and tight body shaping garments are a huge problem, and there is a solution. Today, women are not the only targets; men are being affected as well. According to Dr. Rick Henricksen from the University of Utah Healthcare, they could be damaging your nerves.
Dr. Henricksen says, “If you wear tight clothing, especially tight belts around your waist, you can get compression of the lateral cutaneous nerve and that causes numbness and tingling in the upper thighs.” These “go to” items in our closets can be causing digestive and even breathing problems as well!
He does say that there is a cure! You guessed it! Try wearing jeans that allow you to breath, loosening them up and losing some weight! Even grabbing some jeans with a bit of spandex will help. How do you know if your jeans are harming you? Experiencing a tingling feeling or numbness feeling is your cue!
