Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a neurological condition that causes an irresistible urge to move the legs, often accompanied by tingling, pain, numbness, or a sensation of “pulling.” It affects 7-10% of the US population, is more common in women, and risk increases with age. Symptoms include discomfort in the legs that worsens when resting. While there is no cure, treatments such as correcting iron deficiency, lifestyle changes, and medications can help manage symptoms. It’s important to consult a doctor if RLS disrupts sleep. Lifestyle changes like avoiding caffeine and alcohol before bed, stretching leg muscles, and maintaining a regular sleep schedule can also help alleviate symptoms.
