If you find that strange sensations in your legs keep you from sleeping or cause you to jump up and move around to relieve the discomfort, you may have Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). RLS is a central nervous system disorder that can interfere with resting or falling asleep.

Various treatments help with RLS. For some people, self-help tips decrease the discomfort, and for others, more treatment is necessary. Regardless, you can find relief.


Common Symptoms of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)


Irritating sensations
Sensations can be painful or just uncomfortable and are often described as a general urge to move the legs (or other affected limbs).

Urge to move
Getting up and moving around seems to relieve discomfort.

Evenings and nighttime are worse
Discomfort tends to increase during the evening or night.

Rest or stillness brings on the symptoms
Sitting or lying down seem to trigger the restlessness in the legs.

Visible movements in toes or feet
Your feet or toes may move slightly or jerk when you are sitting still or resting.Health Question & Answer
