A Review On Clinical Features and Management of Restless Legs Syndrome

[摘要] Restless legs syndrome is a nervous system disorder that causes overpowering urge to move your legs. It’s a sleep disorder it usually happens or gets worse while we are at rest. RLS is a lifelong condition with no cure, but medication can help to manage symptoms. Patients with RLS may report sensation such as almost irresistible urge to move the legs that are not painful. It generally worsens with age and disrupts sleep. RLS can lead to significant physical and emotional disability. Symptoms of RLS include unusual feeling in their legs (like itching, crawling, pulling, aching, throbbing or pins and needles.) and powerful urge to move their legs to make sensation go away. Lifestyle changes are sufficient to overcome RLS. Mild to moderate or severe symptoms of RLS can be treated with pharmacological drugs.
