| Although women have worn corsets in past centuries, Kim Kardashian seem to have made it extremely popular in this century |
Studies from experts have revealed that the benefits derived from shape-wears, waist trainers, spanx, corsets, or any restrictive garment may be largely undermined by the dangerous threats they pose in the long run, because stuffing your self into tight garments could lead to internal damage.
According to Dr Dennis Cardone, a physician and orthopaedic surgeon, wearing your waist shaper for too long can lead to a condition known as Meralgia Paraesthetica, this means due to compression, there is pressure on the nerves that run in front of your thigh to your knees causing numbness and tingling that could last for days.
Some other doctors believe these extremely tight garments can slowdown digestion as well as trigger Incontinence (price too big to pay just for the sake of fitting into a bodycon dress one might add).
