How do I relieve restless legs?

Go to your doctor and explain the symptoms you are having to get properly diagnosed. Requip is the drug that is prescribed for RLS. A lot of our patients also take Benadryl 50 mg before bed and it helps tremendously!

you might have rls. you can go to your doctor and get some medicine for it.

I have that.Doing something like exercise has not helped.Maybe just take a bite on one will help.Maybe I will try it myself.A hot towel does help

For those who experience RLS infrequently and do not need or want to try medication, in addition to lifestyle changes they can try:

some form of exercise for several minutes such as walking, stretching, meditation, yoga, etc. at bedtime
heat or cold, such as a hot or cold bath, a heating pad, or a fan
soaking one's feet in hot water just prior to going to sleep
engrossing the mind in a game, the computer, or figuring something out
wearing compression stockings, tight pantyhose, or wrapping the legs in ace bandages
placing a pillow between the knees or upper-legs while lying in bed
hot green tea can relieve symptoms
vigorous, deep breathing for one or two minutes


* My feet normally get really hot, So if I can cool them down, the urge to move my legs disappears considerably.

keep exercising eat less don't seat on them

Water aerobics helps a great deal if you are able among mild exercises. There is a fairly new medication out called Requip specifically for restless leg syndrome that if your symptoms persist you may want to ask your Dr. about. Hope you feel better~

Magnesium and iron supplements have been known to help.
That's if you don't want drugs
