However, there are less obvious risks:
wearing tight or synthetic socks at night can retain moisture and heat, creating an environment conducive to fungal infections, such as athlete's foot. Dermatologists also warn about the risks of skin irritation, dryness, and bacterial proliferation due to poor hygiene.
For people with diabetes or circulatory problems, wearing tight-fitting socks can restrict blood flow and increase the risk of foot ulcers, a serious complication. In addition, overheating of the feet can alter the natural system of regulating body temperature during sleep, affecting the REM phase and causing fatigue the next day.
