Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a neurological condition characterized by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs, often accompanied by uncomfortable sensations. These symptoms typically occur during periods of rest or inactivity, especially in the evening or at night, making it difficult for individuals to relax or sleep.
The exact cause of RLS is not fully understood, but it may be linked to genetic factors, iron deficiency, or imbalances in certain brain chemicals like dopamine. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, medications, and addressing any underlying health issues to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
