Answer 8

i did ballet for years. i have a mild bunion, however you can get a bunion from wearing high heels, victoria beckham has one so does naomi campbell. knees injuries can happen if you jump and you don't land correctly. a lot of them sprain their ankles too. however my honest opinion is that it was worth it ballerinas have long lean bodies, long necks and good posture.
