What it feels like

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) causes a powerful urge to move your legs. They feel uncomfortable when you're lying down or sitting — people describe it as creeping, crawling, tingling or burning. Moving helps, but not for long.

RLS can make it hard to fall asleep and stay asleep.

Causes

  • Most often: no known cause.
  • Sometimes: a disease or condition, such as anemia or pregnancy.
  • Some medicines can cause temporary RLS.

What makes it worse

  • caffeine
  • tobacco
  • alcohol

What helps

  1. Lifestyle changes: regular sleep habits, relaxation techniques, moderate exercise during the day.
  2. If those don't work, medicines may ease the symptoms.

Periodic limb movement disorder

Most people with RLS also have periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD): the legs twitch or jerk uncontrollably, usually during sleep. Both RLS and PLMD can also affect the arms.
