Perhaps it’s time to cast a little light on some of the fashion trends that are currently causing cash registers to ring at clothing outlets all over. “Skinny jeans” have been in fashion for a while, but will eventually be replaced by yet another trend. Until they come back in style again in a few years, that is. Yes, even skinny jeans carry some health risks, although they are decidedly less serious than heavy metal poisoning or falling off of three-foot high heels! A condition known as meraligia paresthetica or “tingling thigh syndrome” may be caused by wearing skinny jeans as well as a condition known as folliculitis which is basically a skin rash. Just be happy you don’t live in the 16th century!
