Which leg is longer?

But love is so human that it puts every physiology, even the weakest sexual constitution, on a pedestal. A smart couple learns to have fun and find a compromise that works for both of them.

Long second toes: what to do when they get in the way

I often meet patients whose second toe is longer than the first and causes them discomfort.

The Greek foot type, in which the second toe is longer than the first, occurs spontaneously in 20 % people. Even after surgery for a big toe malposition, the first toe is often shortened by 3-5 mm.

With this type of foot, there are often problems when choosing footwear: the wrong footwear can cause the toe to become crooked. And peculiarities of physique and gait can lead to blisters and discomfort at the base of the big toe.

Many patients with this problem are wondering how to shorten the toe. You can find the answer to this question in my video. Be sure to check it out if you are struggling with this problem.

Frequently Asked Questions

The surgery itself is no different. For all surgeries I perform I use the latest medical equipment, the best imported implants, high-quality consumables, the necessary medicines and I use regional anesthesia (a type of local anesthesia - two injections into the foot). There are only two differences in free surgery: 1. If you want to operate on both feet at the same time, you must perform the operation on two different days. The other foot can only be operated after 2 weeks. 2. When you have a quota, there is no aftercare. Follow-up care is always included in the price of the surgeries I pay for. This way I can check how you are feeling, how your bones are healing and how your joint has regained mobility. In this way I can prevent possible postoperative complications. This always leads to excellent results and satisfied patients. Postoperative care can be purchased separately.

'And the little foot. '

In Russia, too, there was a preference for the size of the feet; the same Pushkin inevitably mentioned the 'little foot' when describing features of beauty. But while in Russia it wasn't difficult to hide your feet under long skirts and only show the toes of your shoes to admirers, in China everything was much more dramatic.

The reason for the excessive attention paid to foot size in China is shrouded in legend. Whether it was an imperial dancer named Yu making her mini slippers out of golden lotus flowers and bandaging her feet to make them appear smaller, or dancing for the emperor among the lotus flowers, the only important thing is the effect. Over a thousand years ago, the nobility's fondness for small feet became so great that tiny feet became a sign of belonging to the elite. Over time, the tradition of foot binding spread to all walks of life.

The very first question matchmakers asked the bride's parents was about the size of the foot. Nothing else interested would-be husbands so much, not beauty, nor education, nor manners. It was thought that only commoners who spent their days in the fields could have big feet. And noble ladies didn't grow their own feet.

There is an essay describing 58 varieties of 'lotus lady's feet'. Each variety was rated on a nine-point scale. For example, there were the types 'Lotus Blossom', 'Chinese Chestnut', 'Young Moon', 'Bamboo Shoot'.... The author distinguished softness, gracefulness and plumpness as other features of the feet. He considered 'divine' feet to be extremely plump, graceful and soft, 'wonderful' feet - weak and delicate, and 'irregular' feet - feet with a large monkey heel that 'enables climbing'.

Advice for men is also found in this treatise: Never remove the pads from your feet to see bare feet. If this rule is broken, the sense of beauty is inevitably offended.

Eternal pain in the name of beauty

Four years was considered the optimal age to start bandaging the feet. And to begin the transformation of the feet, a female relative was brought in. Mothers were considered 'unsuitable' for binding because they could pity the child and 'spoil' the feet with insufficient cruelty. 'A mother cannot love her daughter and her foot at the same time.

Making the lotus feet was very tedious. Except for the big toe, all feet were tied towards the foot and bandaged tightly to keep the bones from coming together. The bandages were soaked with animal blood and plant extracts, the shoes were put on, and so they had to walk 5 km every day to preserve the deformed tissue.

Every fortnight the hard shoes were replaced with a smaller size. The necrosis of the tissue was considered effective, the children's toes would shrivel and fall off without adequate blood supply, the bones of the foot would fracture, gangrene would sometimes set in, sepsis would develop and death would follow. In wealthy families, the tying process was repeated daily, replacing the strips of cloth with fresh ones and washing the feet. In poor families this happened once or twice a week. For the rest of her life, the bandages were not even allowed to be removed at night. Even today there is a saying in China that says: 'It smells so much like the bandages on an old woman's feet'.

The hypocritical attitude of male society towards this tradition was underscored not only by the treatise on 'divine' and 'wonderful' feet, which could not be seen naked so as not to offend the aesthetic sense. 'Lotus feet' were admired, fine footprints in the snow praised, and the ban on 'undressing' such feet fueled intimate fantasies. According to the poetic canon, fine, thin, pointed, soft feet were also... fragrant.

It's easy to imagine what the smell of rotting flesh really was. Thus fantasies flourished in which men preferred not to hear their daughters scream and to see the misery of wives who could not even walk on their own bruised legs.

8 tricks for choosing clothes that make your legs look endless

Receive one of our most read articles in your inbox once a day. Join us on Facebook and VKontakte.

There are few girls who are completely satisfied with their figure. Some are unfortunate with swollen thighs, others with excess waist weight, and still others with short legs. And if the first two traits can be corrected with exercise and proper nutrition, the last problem can only be corrected with the right clothing. Novate.ru explains how to do it.

1 - V-shaped neckline.

V-neck sweaters, blouses and t-shirts are the real remedy for little girls or those beauties who want to make their legs look infinitely long. A neckline like this creates that vertical line that is essential to an outfit and makes the silhouette appear slimmer. Such a top is best combined with a skirt or pants with a raised waist. By the way, if you don't have a V-neck sweater, you can just undo a button or two of your shirt to get the same effect.

2. a belt around the top of the pants

Many girls really believe that the only purpose of a belt is to emphasize their waist. In reality, with the right accessory, he can also lengthen his legs. If you want to accentuate your silhouette, choose a slim, contrasting belt that contrasts with your clothes. If you don't want to draw attention to this area, a belt that matches the color of your pants or skirt is a good choice. Whichever model you choose, remember to place the accessory along the top edge of the pants. In this way you avoid additional horizontal lines in the styling, which additionally weigh down and split the silhouette and thus shorten the legs.

Correct leg proportions

Ideally, the shin line should flow smoothly into the thigh line, the lower leg must be well muscled and the thigh must not be too thin or bloated. The knee should form a smooth transition between the shin and thigh. The smooth contours of the shin and hip should form three spindle-shaped 'windows' as the legs close: between the calves, the knee joints, and the thighs of the right and left legs. The upper window, formed by the inner contours of the hips, should be the narrowest.

Correction of the lower legs

The shape and volume of thin shinbones can nowadays be corrected with cruciate plastic surgery, a plastic surgery in which the shinbones are enlarged with the help of endoprostheses. Shin splints are a popular procedure among male bodybuilders.

The first tibial augmentation surgeries using silicone implants were performed in 1979 by French plastic surgeon J. Glitzenstein. Today, the technique of plastic correction of the tibia is well proven and leads to high aesthetic results with a minimal risk of side effects. Ciroplasty is indicated for thin tibias that are not in harmony with the body, varus or valgus deformities of the lower limbs, and asymmetric tibias.

The problem of a thin tibia can be solved by inserting silicone implants, which are designed similar to the implants used in plastic surgery for breast augmentation. Silicone tibial prostheses can be oblong or round, with a smooth or textured surface. An experienced plastic surgeon can easily choose the right size and shape of the endoprosthesis depending on the best results and the patient's wishes. The implants have a flexible silicone shell with a gel-like, viscous filling inside and are custom-made or individually adjusted in length and thickness from existing samples.

Tibial arthroplasty is the only safe and effective way to increase the volume and shape of thin tibia. The implants then do not interfere with walking and are not noticeable in any way during sporting activities.

How to properly take an X-ray of a weight-bearing foot

Proper assessment of a forefoot deformity (hallux valgus) requires a weight-bearing X-ray, which means the patient must be standing during the exposure.

We recommend the First Diagnostični Center at 10 Sikeirosa Street.

What do you gain from a personal consultation with me?

I am often asked why it is better to come for a consultation before the operation. After all, you can send photos and social media and then go straight to the operating table. I've been in surgery for 18 years and I've noticed something

History of the Anomalies: Antiquity

However, although the medical description of this unique foot structure was only created at the beginning of the last century, the anomaly has been known since ancient times. According to scientists, the Neanderthal's foot looked exactly like it, and not like the feet of 90 % modern humans.

This type of anatomical structure of the foot can be seen on many ancient statues. This is not related to the widespread prevalence of this anatomical anomaly in ancient times, but to the fact that the Greeks and Romans found this type of foot more aesthetically pleasing. In other words, in ancient times, this peculiarity was not a blemish, but a standard of beauty. People who had them were the lucky ones. Of course, they weren't ashamed of it, on the contrary, they were put on display.

The Morton toe is also often referred to as the Greek foot. This term is not used in medical circles, but it is used in creative professions such as painters and sculptors. Interesting Fact: The American Statue of Liberty also has a Greek foot, meaning her second toe is longer than her thumb.

The statement of the scientists

There is no doubt that the tendency to develop this type of foot is genetically innate in humans. But it's not just genetics that determine the ratio between the length of the big toe and index finger. Geneticists hypothesize that Morton's toe is a complex recessive trait characterized by incomplete penetration. Put simply, this anatomical feature may or may not be inherited through multiple generations.

Orthopedists believe that there is a direct link between Morton's finger and the closure of long bone growth zones during puberty.

Normal body, divided visually 50-50

That means the torso and legs look more or less the same. Everything seems proportionate but boring, I'd love to add length in the leg area.

Such a figure is often cultivated with so-called curves or curves and shapes.

Take away the Kardashian's ample bust and what has made her famous, and literally add a few inches to her waist, and you end up with a completely unattractive 'normal' figure.

Long torso and medium or short legs

Although it doesn't really matter what the legs look like anymore, a torso that is too long is a pronounced and thick tic. This is the 'composite figure'. With this body type, it's like going on a diet. All the 'dishes' of fashionable cuisine can no longer be put into words. You have to learn to dress appropriately.

In no case should this guy gain weight at the hips.

No 'Halifa', not even minimal. Everything should be minimal in this area. Otherwise the silhouette will 'sag' down even more.

How to attract this type will be analyzed separately. In principle, the type described as 'normal torso and short legs' can also be assigned here. What's the difference? With short legs, the upper body will always look too long.

How do you determine the sex constitution?

• Norms for the sex constitution
• Gender constitution types in women
• Types of sex constitution in men.
• Relationship between leg length and trochanter index
• Compatibility of couples with high and low sex constitution

First of all, there are no standards in this important area. How many times a week you should have sex and how long the intercourse should last - you will not get an unequivocal answer to these questions. It all depends on your partner's sexual activity, and that depends on many characteristics. From the endocrine system, from the temperament, from the upbringing. But above all, according to the sexologists, from the sexual constitution.

And before considering lack of sex a 'fault' on man's part or 'damage' to his endocrine system, a woman or man should be aware of the following: …. your partner's legs!

Both men and women have three types of sexual constitution: it can be strong, medium and weak, says Nikolai Kibrik, head of the Center and Department of Sexopathology at the Moscow Research Institute of Psychiatry. – With a simple mathematical calculation, called the 'trochanter index', you can find out how things are with you or your partner.

How to correctly calculate the trochanter index and thus determine your sexual constitution?

Look at the lateral aspect of the trochanter of the femur, the knot protruding laterally from the thigh. Now measure the length of your leg from the knot you found to the floor - it's best to have someone holding a tape measure help you with this so the tape doesn't slack and the measurement is accurate. You should also know your height in centimeters. To find your sex constitution and trochanter index, divide your height by your leg length. The number resulting from this division is the trochanter index. This is how your figure is related to your sex constitution:

Women

• Strong sexual constitution - 2.01 to 2.05.
• Average sexual constitution - 1.97 to 2.00.
• Weak sexual constitution - 1.88 to 1.96.

• Strong sexual constitution - 1.99 to 2.00.
• Mean sexual constitution – 1.92 to 1.98
• Weak sexual constitution - 1.85 to 1.91.

From these data it can be seen that people with a strong sexual constitution are more likely to have shorter legs. Why is that?

Because the Trochanteric Index is closely related to high levels of testosterone (sex hormone) in the blood and the timing at which the growth plates of the long bones of the adolescent close. Long bones are found in the lower limbs. In other words, the more testosterone a person produces during puberty, the sooner they'll hit puberty. And the sooner the growth zone of the long bones in the legs stops 'functioning' – the legs stop growing, they stay short. In such a man, the testosterone responsible for libido and a strong sexual temperament is well produced. In a teenager, in whom nature has created a weak sexual constitution, testosterone is synthesized in small amounts and the growth area of the long bones in the legs remains 'open' for a long time. The legs grow and grow. Hence such a man becomes long-legged.

People with an average sexual constitution are in the 'middle' between these two poles.

However, it is important to know and realize that the trochanter indicator doesn't just mean long or short legs. Height is also important! Even tall people with long legs can boast of a strong sexual constitution because, not to forget, it's all about the relationship between a man's height and the length of his legs. The proportions of the ideal macho man should be as follows: the height of a man should be twice the distance between the heel and the pelvic bone. The stronger a man's constitution and sexuality, the more the upper body dominates the length of the legs.

Which genitals men and women do not find beautiful

Pubic hair is the most disliked part of the genitals. Pubic hair that both men and women dislike. Some men even stated that they would not get intimate with a woman with lots of hair.

Equally annoying were rashes, cuts, irritation and ingrown hairs after waxing. Among the males there were a small number of supporters of the presence of vegetation, while among the females there were none.

The other aspect that nobody likes is the unpleasant smell . Women were more concerned about this issue than men. They said they sometimes felt like their genitals smelled bad, and several survey respondents said they didn't like the smell depending on their cycle time. The stronger sex also found the smell unpleasant, but only if it was sufficiently pungent and unpleasant.

Heavy discharge is also uncomfortable. Many people believe that unpleasant odor and discharge are linked to sexually transmitted diseases. This view is not unfounded, since many sexually transmitted infections are actually accompanied by such symptoms.

The third parameter that has caused a large number of dislikes is the discomfort, associated with intimacy. These are weakness of the genitals, insufficient lubrication, unpleasant sounds - escaping air and crunching.

This situation is most often associated with a weakening of vaginal tissues as a result of childbirth or age-related processes. Both problems can be treated with the help of aesthetic gynecology. Injections of hyaluronic acid, which has water-attracting properties, can help moisturize the tissues, while vaginoplasty, in which the doctor narrows the vaginal opening, can be used to thicken the genitals.

The fourth most popular topic of dislike is aesthetics. Both men and women are bothered by large, uneven, flattened inner lips. There have also been complaints about the color of the genitals. Both sexes have written that intimate areas that are too dark look old.

So what is the ideal intimate area?

In summary, women's and men's aesthetic preferences for the female genitalia coincide in a peculiar way:

• A beautiful intimate area is smooth, without ingrown hairs or other signs of depilation. The mucous membranes should be pink.
• Everyone likes compact, symmetrical labia with smooth edges that do not protrude beyond the rim of the labia majora.
• Men prefer a small clitoris, which can often be made smaller visually by cutting out part of the hood, the tissue overlying it.
• Beautiful genitals must be healthy. For this reason, respondents paid attention to the absence of an unpleasant odor, profuse discharge and other symptoms that can cause discomfort and indicate venereal diseases.

The experts also wanted to know what men and women think about female genitalia altered by plastic surgery. It turned out that both sexes were not indifferent to how the intimate area was shaped as desired.

Photos of operated and non-operated genitals received roughly the same rating, based more on aesthetics than naturalness. And many people were not even able to distinguish between the modernized and the natural intimate organs.

This speaks to the high level of specialists who are able to make this area attractive while remaining natural.

Therefore, the modern woman can have beautiful genitals that she and her partner will love. In addition, there are numerous aesthetic treatments and surgeries that improve the appearance of the intimate area. Eliminating unpleasant odor and heavy discharge is also good for your health. Just make an appointment with your gynecologist and take care of yourself.
