What it feels like

Irresistible urge to move the legs, especially at rest or in the evening

Uncomfortable sensations in the legs — crawling, tingling, aching, or burning

Symptoms relieved temporarily by movement

Symptoms worse in the evening and at night

When to get help

See a doctor if RLS is affecting your sleep or daily life. An iron blood test is recommended before starting medication, as low iron is a common and correctable cause — particularly important in pregnancy.
