I have a query regarding &#8216;Restless legs syndrome&#8217;. <br \/>Since childhood I have a tendency to keep moving my legs while sitting. <br \/>When working on a computer in a sitting position on a chair, I feel comfortable only when I keep my legs horizontal on another chair. <br \/>I feel very very uncomfortable keeping my legs vertical hanging down. <br \/>Wearing socks makes it a bit comfortable. <br \/>Even at night I wear socks to get a good night&#8217;s sleep. <br \/>What can be the cause for the same and how do I reduce\/ prevent it? <br \/>My food intake, weight, blood pressure, sleep pattern are normal. <br \/>I also follow a strict fitness regime since my childhood which includes running and sports. <br \/>One observation is that whenever I sweat due to exercise, I feel much better.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hi. Apply warm or cool packs.<\/p>\n<p>Use of heat or cold, or the alternate use of both, may lessen the limb sensations.<\/p>\n<p>Establish good sleep hygiene.<\/p>\n<p>Fatigue tends to worsen symptoms of RLS, so it&#8217;s important that you practise good sleep hygiene.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ashish: Hi Rebecca, I am a 41-year-old male. <br \/>Whenever I keep my legs still for some time &#8212; like in a movie hall or sit in the same position &#8212; within 10 minutes I get tingling sensation (it goes to sleep as they say), what is it? <\/strong><br \/><strong>Also, I feel I have loose muscles. <br \/>I can&#8217;t lift much weight as compared to 3-4 years ago.
