Why you shouldn't sleep in socks

For every person, sleep is an important component of life. Therefore, it should be comfortable, since in the morning you need to be cheerful and full of energy. However, there are people who prefer to sleep in socks, without thinking that this should not be done. Why is it harmful to sleep in socks?

Why you shouldn't sleep in socks

The first reason why you shouldn’t go to bed like that is aesthetics. Socks are a thing designed to comfortably wear shoes and keep your feet warm during the day. They are intended for daytime wear, but not for sleeping.

In addition, by the end of the working day, the legs become very swollen, and the elastic on the product can put a lot of pressure on the blood vessels. This will lead to impaired blood circulation. Another reason why it is not recommended to go to bed like this is sleep disturbance. A person may subconsciously try to expose his legs at night, which will interfere with sleep.

Falling asleep in socks is only possible in certain cases with the recommendation of a doctor and individual characteristics.At night you need to wear clean, soft and loose socks to avoid discomfort.

How does it affect health?

Each person has his own habits, which not everyone wants to part with. However, not everyone knows the possible negative consequences after choosing nightwear.

Important! Experts believe that it is harmful to fall asleep in socks only because your feet sweat a lot during sleep.

This habit can have a negative impact on human health. The consequence is:

  • Infectious diseases.
  • Deterioration of blood circulation, leading to stagnation.
  • The feet do not rest and do not breathe air.
  • Formation of an unpleasant odor due to poor ventilation.

To avoid such problems, you need to carefully select things for sleeping. If you wash your feet every day before going to bed and wear clean, loose clothes made from natural materials, there is a chance to prevent negative consequences.

Reviews and comments
IN Voronova Lyudmila Vyacheslavovna?:

What is the aesthetics in bed?! Who wrote this ****?

L Lucy:

What is the aesthetics in bed?! Who wrote this nonsense?!

T Tatiana:

I sleep in cotton socks, free from elastic bands, my feet get cold at night, but this way I feel warm and comfortable.

L Lydia:

How to warm your feet if they are cold before bed too

E Elena:

If you have leg cramps at night, even doctors recommend sleeping in natural woolen socks. I tested it on myself, the cramps stopped.

AND Irina:

For example, the doctor strictly ORDERED me to sleep in woolen socks (chronic pyelonephritis..)
I read your article and was even puzzled, although the person is not suspicious. And who is suspicious..)))))

P Peter:

The author rang the bells without looking at the calendar... It’s a rare person after 60, or even 50 years old, who does not use socks for sleeping. The author is still young and hot!

N Natalia:

Just yesterday there was an article about the benefits of sleeping in socks))))) you need to sleep comfortably, and if it’s convenient and pleasant to sleep in socks, then that’s what you should do. Of course, in clean, natural and without rubber bands.

N Nikolay Kazakov:

My answer is simple: Tatyana, Lydia and Elena, sleep as comfortable and cozy as you want and don’t listen to the nonsense of pseudo experts, and strongly advise the man lying next to you, because warm legs contribute to better blood circulation, and the blood does not forget to visit the right places of warmed men.

TO Kirill:

People sleep in socks:
1) when they are sick;
2) when it’s cold at home and it’s impossible to sleep from this cold.
Everything else is complete nonsense! Grandmothers who believe in omens first of all advise rubbing your feet with warming ointment or dry mustard and putting on warm socks! Warmth in the legs improves blood circulation, preventing congestion, but does not interfere in any way, and doctors talk about this. A tight elastic band certainly harms blood circulation, both day and night, but little is thought about this as long as nothing hurts and there are no varicose veins. In Ancient Rome they did not wear socks, there was no such thing then, study the archives! By the way, in the catalogs of German clothing, socks for sleeping are everywhere presented, and the Germans are wise and practical people, I think they will not recommend useless things!

IN Valentina:

Unfortunately, mutually exclusive advice often appears on the computer. Who to listen to and who to believe? I listen to my body: my feet are cold - I insulate myself, as long as the elastic bands do not squeeze my legs, and in stores there are such socks for sale (with a weak elastic band) ...

T Tamara:

Anyone who likes to sleep in socks sleeps. Without elastic on the ankle, so as not to press.

IN Vova.:

When it’s cold to sleep at the dacha in the fall, I sleep in warm woolen socks, which I use only for sleeping. Be sure to wash your feet before going to bed.

TO Kolya:

Can you sleep in a jacket?

M mrshapiness:

And the kitten bites me on the legs, only socks save me!

F Fairy:

People! You are all wise and clever! It's nice to read your reviews. “Suppressive” Irina! Well, who are you listening to! Kindergarten. Sheer immaturity. No logic, no experience. Absolutely everyone is right (even the author in some ways), namely: health, comfort and common sense, and listen to your body. And everything else is bullshit. Of course, you don’t have to sleep in “rubber boots.” When you have brains, but your feet are cold. And if I go to bed in my apartment in winter (because it can be +13 here - thanks to housing and communal services) in bed without socks, I just stupidly won’t sleep at all. And so – 2 minutes and – complete peace. Well, what normal person would prefer painful insomnia throughout the night to proper rest? The author is not just “young and hot,” and life has not yet let him down. You need to have a little basic logic and wisdom, and not teach how to live to those who already know how to live. And work off your salary wisely, and not from a running start - against the wall. That is OK. He reads all our comments and, under a different nickname, in another place he will write a “scientifically based” article about how useful it is to sleep in cotton and wool socks after 40 and with various “illnesses” and not listen to stupid advice. Learn to live, Valentina. It's about time, really! And don’t be surprised by this “computer” mash of nonsense and common sense. And no - like a garbage dump, a meat grinder or Malyshev - what they throw in there, falls out of there. Everything in a row - both good and whatever. Have fun - learn to filter.

T Tatiana:

What stupidity! And old people sleep in socks. By the way, socks are also different and I think no one will go to bed in walking socks.
