Broken heelEveryone knows looking good can kill you. It's tradition, from the days of corsets and footbinding -- now we have crash diets and sky-high stilettos. There are a lot of ways you can be injured by your desire to be the best.

Lemondrop has compiled a list with summaries of these five afflictions:
  • High Heelitis
  • Flip-Flop Foot
  • Handbag Hernia
  • Jogger's Nipple
  • Bra Boo-Boos
(click here to read)

... And we know you have more injuries. Poke yourself in the eye with your eye pencil? Pass out on diet drugs? Get an infection at a salon? Tell us how lookin' hot got you hurt!
