Restless legs syndrome

Restless legs syndrome, also known as Willis-Ekbom disease, is a sensorimotor neurological disorder primarily affecting the legs, characterized by an irresistible urge to move the legs to relieve discomfort, which impacts sleep. This condition is more common in middle-aged and elderly individuals, with a higher prevalence in women. The main symptoms include an indescribable discomfort in both legs during rest and at night, which improves with movement.
