Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)

What is Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)?

Restless Legs Syndrome is characterized by a strong urge to move the legs, often accompanied by sensations that are described as creeping, crawling, tingling, or aching. These feelings tend to be worse in the evening or at night, making it difficult for individuals to relax and fall asleep. Moving the legs temporarily alleviates the discomfort, but the symptoms can return quickly.

Common Symptoms of RLS

  • Uncomfortable sensations in the legs, often described as crawling, tingling, or aching
  • An overwhelming urge to move the legs, especially when lying down or at rest
  • Symptoms that worsen in the evening or at night
  • Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep due to discomfort

Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a neurological disorder that causes an irresistible urge to move the legs due to uncomfortable sensations, often worsening at night. These symptoms can disrupt your sleep and affect your overall quality of life.

How We Treat Restless Legs Syndrome?

Medications: We may prescribe medications that regulate the dopamine levels in your brain, such as dopaminergic agents, or medications that target nerve-related pain, like gabapentinoids or opioids, for more severe cases.
Lifestyle Changes: We guide you in making lifestyle adjustments, such as regular exercise, avoiding caffeine and alcohol, and improving sleep hygiene, to help reduce symptoms and enhance your overall well-being.
Behavioral Therapies: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) can be beneficial for patients whose RLS symptoms are interfering with their ability to sleep. This therapy helps address sleep-related thoughts and behaviors to improve sleep quality.
Iron and Nutrient Management: In some cases, RLS can be linked to iron deficiency. Our team will monitor your iron levels and recommend supplements if necessary.
Alternative Therapies: Techniques such as leg massages, hot or cold compresses, and relaxation exercises may help alleviate discomfort and improve your ability to relax at night.
