Overview
About Restless Legs Syndrome
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a neurological condition characterized by an irresistible urge to move the legs, often accompanied by uncomfortable sensations like tingling, crawling, or aching.
These symptoms typically worsen in the evening or at night, especially when resting or trying to sleep, and are temporarily relieved by movement. While the exact cause is unknown, RLS may be linked to issues with dopamine levels in the brain or iron deficiency. The condition can significantly impact sleep quality and daily life.
Treatment options include lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, avoiding caffeine and alcohol, and establishing good sleep habits. In more severe cases, medications like dopamine agonists, anticonvulsants, or opioids may be prescribed. If you experience persistent leg discomfort and an urge to move, especially at night, consult your healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment options.

I've trusted Dr. Zafar and her team at Auria Medical Clinics for 3 years and they do not disappoint. I know I'm getting excellent medical care and have used them for both in person and virtual appointments. She listens and provides insightful feedback that helps me to manage my health and wellness. Great job to her team in assuring my lab appointments are set up and ready when I arrive. I highly recommend!

Dr. Araghi is wonderful. His office staff is so nice and they move efficiently. Both visits I've had to his office were pleasant and Dr Araghi was on time for the appointments. I appreciate him keeping a great schedule and being considerate of my time. I Will definitely visit for any future needs.
