INJURIES caused by wearing flip flops cost the UK's National Health Service about £40 million ($70 million) every year. The Independent said about 200,000 people see their doctors or end up in a hospital as a result of walking in the footwear.
Wearing flip flops over a prolonged period can increase the risk of developing shin splints and joint pains, according to chiropodists.
The design of the footwear changes the way a person walks by putting pressure on the outside of their foot rather than the heel.
Flip flops (also known as thongs in Australia) are believed to have originated in Ancient Egypt about 4000 BC.
The oldest surviving pair, from 1500 BC, is on display in the British Museum.
Materials used to make flip-flops have changed over time from papyrus, palm leaves and straw to plastic and rubber.
