Restlessness Syndrome
Restlessness Syndrome, often referred to as Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), is a neurological condition characterized by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs. This urge typically occurs during periods of inactivity, especially in the evening or at night, and is often accompanied by uncomfortable sensations in the legs. The symptoms can disrupt sleep and daily activities, leading to fatigue and decreased quality of life.
The exact cause of Restlessness Syndrome 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 effectively.
