Restless legs syndrome often occurs at rest, when you are about to fall asleep, or when you are resting at night, and people often have a strong but uncontrollable desire to shake due to abnormal sensations in the legs. Restless legs syndrome is divided into two types: primary and secondary, and the secondary is caused by various clear **, such as pregnancy, uremia, iron deficiency, anemia or Parkinson's. Those with mild symptoms only have symptoms such as frequent turning, constant movement, tossing and turning in the afternoon, and severe cases will continue to experience epigastric discomfort from afternoon to early morning.
Due to the constant turning over, it will cause patients to have difficulty falling asleep, and more than 80% of patients with restless legs are accompanied by varying degrees of sleep disorders. In fact, restless legs are also a kind of sleep disorder disease, due to uncomfortable symptoms combined with sleep disorders, anxiety, depression and other diseases, laboratory tests need to check serum iron ion test, its pathogenesis is mainly caused by abnormal dopamine transport function, abnormal iron metabolism, neurotransmitter and pathway abnormalities, neuroanatomical structure abnormalities and other theories, the use of dopamine drugs, iron supplements and anti-epileptic drugs ** has a certain effect, but in the process of use, attention should be paid to weighing the interests of patients and adverse drug reactions.
Valium drugs can be used clonidine, amantadine, etc.; Iron can be used as Sulifei; Opioids can be used such as chimantin; Antiepileptic drugs can be pregabalin and gabapentin; Dopamine can be used with medopa**.
There is also a type of restless leg that is caused by clinical soft tissue disease, which needs to be corresponded after a physical examination**.

Restless legs is a nervous system problem, ** is indeed not clear, but it has been found that it may be related to iron deficiency, even diabetes, rheumatism, and many pregnant women because the fetus also needs nutrition, nutrition may be relatively a little bit unable to keep up, or it may be because of the iron ** does not lead to such symptoms, so it's ** is difficult to say clearly.
The performance is mainly when he is quiet or when he sleeps, a feeling of discomfort in the deep part of the legs, a feeling that is inexplicable, very uncomfortable, and it is more obvious in the middle of the night, affecting his sleep, the legs swinging left and right are always bad, always affecting his feelings, and then he can't fall asleep, sometimes he has to get up and move to relieve the symptoms, to help him fall asleep.

Restless legs syndrome is strictly a neurological problem, ** is indeed not clear, but it has been found that it may be related to iron deficiency, and even diabetes and rheumatism. Often complicated by gastric surgery, uremia, alcoholism, and psychiatric factors are of great importance, especially when contemplating movies and theaters.
It is believed that the disease is caused by autonomic dysfunction, infectious diseases, vitamin deficiencies, diabetes mellitus, and various anemias. It has been suggested that it is an autosomal dominant disorder, and that several people may develop the disease in the same family group, and some have mentioned the use of benzylthiazide drugs, and the abrupt discontinuation of barbiturates can induce the disease.
Some people believe that the most likely cause is the abnormal accumulation of Xinchen Dai Tan and Xie products in the muscles, and it has also been reported that it is related to insufficient peritoneal dialysis and local blood circulation disorders.
There are two types of diseases, primary and secondary, of which the primary ** is unknown, and children often have a family genetic history, and the secondary ones mostly have some neurological diseases.

Restless legs syndrome is a relatively common condition, with a prevalence of about 30 to 45%, and it affects more women than men. The pathogenesis of restless legs syndrome is not well understood, and may be related to abnormalities in the dopamine system. Kidney failure, iron deficiency, antidopaminer, and anti-anxiety drugs can all cause secondary restless legs.
Restless legs syndrome can occur in people of all ages, but it is more common in older people. Restless leg symptoms mostly appear in both lower limbs, especially in the lower legs, and sometimes symptoms also occur in the thighs and feet, which can be heavy on one side or limited to one lower limb, and also appear in both lower limbs at the same time.

What causes restless legs syndrome?
The cause of the disease is unknown. It is often complicated by gastric surgery, uremia, alcoholism, and psychiatric factors are of certain importance to the pathogenesis. In particular, symptoms occur when conceiving, watching movies, and plays.
It is thought to be autonomic dysfunction. Infectious diseases, vitamin deficiencies, diabetes mellitus and various anemias may be the most important factors. It is thought to be an autosomal dominant disorder that can occur in several people in the same family.
2] The use of phenylthiazide has been mentioned, and abrupt discontinuation of barbiturates can induce the disease. Some believe that the most likely cause is an abnormal build-up of metabolites in the muscles. It has also been reported to be related to inadequate CAPD (peritoneal dialysis) or impaired local circulation.
There are two types of disease: primary and secondary. Among them, the primary ** is unknown, and children often have a family history of heredity. Secondary is common due to the following causes:
Uremia, iron deficiency anemia, folate deficiency, pregnancy, rheumatoid arthritis, Parkinson's disease, multifocal neuropathy, metabolic disorders, and drugs.
Restless legs syndrome is complex and unknown in Western medicine, and the following factors are thought to be related to the onset.
1.Genetic factors.
Ekbom (1960) suggested that the pathogenesis of RLS was genetically related, with 43% of the reported patients having similar disorders in their relatives, and several families were dominantly inherited.
2.Doctrine of ischemia.
RLS usually occurs during quiet rest, but it can also occur during long-term work in cold environments, and symptoms are often relieved by activity, compression, thrashing of local muscles, or the use of vasodilators. In some patients, limb blood flow studies also show decreased blood flow. Based on the above facts, many scholars believe that this disease is caused by local tissue blood circulation disorders, resulting in tissue hypoxia and metabolite accumulation.
3.Endocrine factors.
RLS is also common in pregnant women. Retrospective diagnosis was made in 486 newly born women and the disease was found. Jolivet (1953) reported that 27% of pregnant women had RLS.
4.Metabolic and nutritional disorders.
Severe RLS is mostly complicated by diabetes, uremia, ethanol poisoning, cancer, hypercholesterolemia and hematoporphyria, so it is thought that it may be metabolic peripheral neuropathy caused by metabolic disorders. It is also thought to be associated with anemia and iron deficiency. Among the 77 patients with the disease reported by Ekbom (1966), 1 4 serum iron was below normal; Aspenstrom (1964) reported that 42% of the 80 patients with iron deficiency identified on health examinations had RLS; Behrman (1955) confirmed that patients with this disease felt significantly better after oral or injected iron supplements.
5.Other**.
Partial venous thrombosis and varicosis of the lower extremities, partial gastrectomy, use of phenothiazines and barbiturates, and psychiatric factors such as anxiety or depression have been reported to be related to the disease.

Restless legs can be caused by malnutrition or by a weakened immune system. In addition, the possibility of folic acid or vitamin deficiency is not ruled out.
It may have something to do with the usual lack of activity, especially in the case of sitting for a long time, the blood circulation in the lower limbs is not very good, which may lead to restless leg syndrome, which may not feel comfortable, but most of the problems are not serious, and may be related to lumbar spine diseases. If possible, you need to go to the hospital to check the lumbar spine, even if there is no major problem with the examination, you can use traditional Chinese medicine or Chinese patent medicine to recuperate.

You can take a conservative approach to do it, such as massaging the legs, taking a hot bath before going to bed, doing some appropriate sports, etc., and combining it with medications.
The full name of restless legs in medicine is restless legs syndrome, which is a relatively common disease in middle-aged and elderly people, and the cause of this disease is not clear, but it is found that some patients have other diseases before the onset of the disease, such as iron deficiency anemia, Parkinson's, uremia, folic acid deficiency, iron deficiency anemia, pregnancy, etc., so it is believed that the occurrence of restless legs is also related to other diseases.
