Leg pain at night while sleeping

2017-05-23 05:42:40
Leg pain occurs below the knees usually at night when I go to sleep it happens 2 times in a week. Sometimes black spots also happens due to pain in the legs. I also feel cramps and burning sensation but when I start walking it goes away automatically. Is it a case of RLS (Restless Legs Syndrome) Kindly advise
