If milk induces sleep, it is not because of its effect on skin temperature (in the case of warm milk) or tryptohpan.

consuming milk as such is unlikely to induce sleep, as the amount of tryptophan present in milk is too small. Milk coupled with a carbohydrate food at bedtime can be a potential sleep aid.

having a glass of warm milk is unlikely to raise skin temperature enough to have any effect
