Your symptoms strongly suggest Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), which is often accompanied by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs due to uncomfortable sensations. These symptoms typically worsen at night or during periods of rest and improve temporarily with movement.

Next Steps

Consult a neurologist for a thorough evaluation, appropriate tests (like iron and vitamin levels), and a tailored treatment plan.

Health Tips

1. Lifestyle Modifications: • Establish a regular sleep routine. • Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and nicotine, especially in the evening. • Engage in moderate exercise during the day but avoid intense workouts close to bedtime. • Consider warm baths, massages, or relaxation techniques before bed. 2. Dietary Adjustments: • Include iron-rich foods like green leafy vegetables, lentils, and lean meats. • Consider vitamin B12, magnesium, and folate-rich foods, which may help.
