Explanation

Restless leg syndrome (RLS) can be uncomfortable, but there are some things you can try at home to help manage it. Regular exercise might help reduce symptoms by keeping your legs active. It's also important to have good sleep habits, like going to bed at the same time every night and making sure your bedroom is comfortable and quiet.

Here are some other things that might help:

  • Warm Baths: Taking a warm bath before bed can help relax your muscles.
  • Massages: Gently massaging your legs might make them feel better.
  • Stretching: Stretching your legs before bedtime can sometimes help reduce symptoms.

These methods are simple and can be tried at home. However, if symptoms persist, it's important to talk to a healthcare professional for further guidance.
