We interviewed a sleep medicine specialist and asked about several TikTok videos that claimed that wearing socks to bed can help people fall asleep faster.
We reached out to sleep medicine specialist Dr. Atul Malhotra, who is a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Diego. He told us that the basic warming and cooling concept rings true, but that there’s more to the story:

Malhotra also told us that socks shouldn’t be a substitute for talking to a medical professional about sleep problems:
