    SQUATTING in super-tight "skinny" jeans may pose a health risk, Australian doctors warned on Tuesday, reporting the case of a woman who temporarily lost feeling in her legs from an hours-long squeeze.

    The 35-year-old collapsed and had to be hospitalised the day after helping a relative move home, spending hours on her haunches to unpack cupboards.
