Did ya LOVE the ah-mazing Alexander McQueen heels Lady Gaga wore in her Bad Romance music video? Her shoes might have been amazingly cool, but according to recent article from CNN, impractical footwear can be hazardous to your health.

Wearing too-high heels too often can cause ankle injuries, hammertoes and foot pain. Wearing stilettos puts pressure on your toes, which irritates your nerves and can cause stinging and numbness. You can even overstretch and snap ankle ligaments!

But, that doesn't mean you can't wear high heels, doctors say. A good thing to do is give your feet a break—so bust out the flats every so often.

Blog it out: How often do you wear heels? Do you think it’s worth the risk?
