Talking about cold, the first thing that comes to mind is covering the ears because cold air enters the body from the ears which makes one sick. In such a situation, we always hear about keeping the ears properly covered. But people often remain confused about the need to cover the head in winter and wearing a hat while sleeping. Today we will tell you in detail about whether it is right to sleep wearing a hat in cold or not?

Is it necessary to cover head while going out in winter?

Yes, it is very important. Because the head, ears, nose and neck are in direct contact with cold air. A lot of body heat comes out through the head only. The elderly, children, and people with weak immunity are more sensitive to catching cold. Therefore, it is beneficial to wear a hat or headcover while going out.

Is it okay to wear a hat while sleeping at night?

There is nothing wrong in wearing a cap while sleeping, but under what circumstances and how to wear it is more important.

Benefits (if worn correctly)

1- In very cold places (like hilly areas) the head remains hot.

2-Body temperature falls, hat helps in maintaining warmth.

31People who get headache due to cold at night, get relief.

When can harm occur (if worn incorrectly)

Wearing a hat that is too tight can increase the pressure in the head. Blood circulation can be affected. Problems like headache or dizziness can occur.

The head may sweat. Chances of fungal infection or itching may increase. Hair may become weak.

Excessive body temperature due to a very warm hat

The body needs to cool down at night (this is part of the sleep cycle). Too much heat can impair sleep quality.

What is the correct way?

1-Wear a light, soft and breathable (cotton/wool blend) hat

2-It should be loose, not too tight

3- Wear it only when it is very cold in the room

4-The cap should not be so thick that it causes sweating.
