About RLS

RLS is a neurological disease; it is also known as Willis-Ekbom disease. People with RLS experience an overwhelming desire to move their legs. It leads to an unpleasant pain in the limbs, leading to a disturbance in sleep pattern of patients. The condition aggravates at night or when the person is at rest. It occurs in both genders, but higher prevalence is seen in women than men. It affects people of all ages but mostly affecting the middle-aged and elderly people. Its common symptoms are uncomfortable itching pain in the legs, leading to a disruption in the sleep pattern and ultimately affecting the quality of life of individuals. The precise cause of RLS is not known but with the extensive investigations done in the field, it is believed to be due to predisposing genetic factors or due to low levels of iron in the brain or due to the disturbances in the dopaminergic balance. Till date, there is no specific cure for the disorder. The drugs present in the market help in the symptomatic treatment of the disorder and in relieving the uneasiness caused due to this disorder.
