It's possible you have foot swelling, or even cuts and scrapes. The higher the heel and skinnier the stiletto, the bigger the ouch factor. Some people may not be able to walk for hours or a full day Solutions to get your feet feeling better fast include yoga toes stretching and foot exercises. The Achilles Tendon and calf muscle becomes tight from high heels, so its important to actively perform stretches. Also, the nature of high heels causes the toes to buckle and contract, and can specifically result in hammer toe. Yoga is an excellent method to stay stretched.
