The urge to move that won't quit.
Restless Leg Syndrome
Restless legs syndrome causes an uncomfortable urge to move the legs, usually during rest and often more strongly in the evening, which can make it difficult to fall asleep or stay asleep.
Restless leg syndrome visits assess symptom timing, sleep disruption, medication contributors, and treatment options such as iron review, lifestyle changes, and prescription therapy.
