A women was hospitalized for days after her jeans caused her to lose feeling in her legs according to a study published in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry. 

Researchers deems that the tightness could cause compression of blood vessels and nerves, immobilizing patient temporarily. The study also concluded that squatting in skinny jeans could damage nerves and muscles in legs. 

The patient spent her day helping a relative move, squatting for hours and when she was finished and walking home afterwards her feet felt numb and tripped and fell. She spent hours on the ground before she was found and rushed to the hospitals. 

Doctors found the woman had suffered 'compartment syndrome', damage to her nerves and muscles in her calves caused by the tight jeans. The damage weakened her ankles, making her unable to stand, and caused her calves to swell up, rendering it impossible to take off the trousers.

Doctors blamed the skinny jeans combined with prolonged squatting for hours and tight jeans and she was wearing. They actually had to cut the jeans off her calves because her legs had become so swollen. They concluded a tourniquet effect happened, making the muscles expand inwards and compressed blood vessels and nerves. If she didn't come to the hospital, it could've caused residual nerve damage. 

She spent four days in the hospital on IV and then could walk again.
