A doctor has tried to put a full stop to a debate if wearing socks to bed helps in falling asleep earlier after she gave medical reasoning to prove her point in a TikTok video.

The doctor said: “So let’s talk about people who wear socks to bed. Wearing socks makes your feet warm and this opens up the blood vessels that cools the body down.
“The body being cool tells the brain that it’s time for bed. So actually, people that wear socks tend to fall asleep faster.”
The video was captioned: “I wear socks to bed so don’t come at me I’m not weird”, but it didn’t deter sock haters from taking to the comments.
