Restless Legs Syndrome: Night Leg Cramps? Don't Ignore This Neurological Disorder!

• Frequent leg discomfort, pulling sensation, or 'ants crawling' feeling at night could be Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).
• RLS, also known as Willis-Ekbom Disease, is a neurological disorder causing an irresistible urge to move legs, especially at rest.
• Symptoms include inability to keep legs still, creeping/itching sensations, worse at night, and involuntary leg movements during sleep.
• Causes include dopamine imbalance, iron deficiency, genetic factors, chronic diseases (diabetes, Parkinson's), pregnancy, and bad habits.
• Lifestyle changes like regular sleep, exercise, nutrient-rich diet, massage, and stress reduction can help; consult a neurologist for diagnosis.
