RLS, which often happens at night, might interfere with your sleep. This can have an impact on your overall quality of life.
A doctor can prescribe some medications for you, such as those that enhance dopamine levels in the brain or those that modify calcium channels. Certain pain relievers, muscle relaxants, and sleep aids may also help.
There are various home remedies that can help with RLS. A warm bath or massage might help alleviate symptoms, as can utilizing hot or cold compresses to reduce limb feelings. Some people find relief by taking magnesium supplements. Fatigue tends to exacerbate RLS, so developing a decent sleep schedule to ensure you receive enough rest will also help.
Moderate, regular exercise can also help ease symptoms, although overdoing it or working out late in the evening can exacerbate them. Cutting back on caffeine usage can also be beneficial.
