Restless leg syndrome

Do you feel uncomfortable sensation in your legs? Have you experienced an uncontrollable urge to move your legs? If yes, you are probably suffering from a condition known as restless leg syndrome. Usually, it occurs while you either just lying down or sleeping. This syndrome can occur at any age and can become worse gradually if not treated on time. Restless leg syndrome is characterized by sensations, relief with movement, and periodic limb movement.
