Watch: Doctors say 'dangerous' skinny jeans could be bad for health

Updated on Jun 24, 2015 02:48 pm IST

Squatting in super-tight 'skinny' jeans may pose a health risk, Australian doctors warned, reporting the case of a woman who temporarily lost feeling in her legs from an hours-long squeeze. The 35-year-old collapsed and had to be hospitalised the day after helping a relative move home, spending hours on her haunches to unpack cupboards.The unusual case was reported in a British specialist publication, the Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery & Psychiatry. The woman's legs were so swollen that the jeans could only be removed by cutting them off. She couldn't move her ankles or toes properly, and had lost feeling in her lower legs and feet. She was put on a drip, and was able to walk normally again only four days later.
