- Definition(s)
- Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a disorder of the part of the nervous system that affects movements of the legs. Because it usually interferes with sleep, it also is considered a sleep disorder.
* People with RLS have strange sensations in their legs (and sometimes arms) and an irresistible urge to move their legs to relieve the sensations.
* The sensations are difficult to describe: they are not painful, but an uncomfortable, "itchy," "pins and needles," or "creepy crawly" feeling deep in the legs.
* The sensations are usually worse at rest, especially when lying in bed.
* The sensations lead to walking discomfort, sleep deprivation, and stress. WebMD, Inc.

Mr. sc. Dean Delić, dr. med.
Sindrom nemirnih nogu je čest neurološki poremećaj koji se prvi puta spominje u 17. stoljeću, a 1944. opisao ga je Karl A. Ekomb i od tada je poznat pod današnjim nazivom (ponekad se naziva i Ekbomov sindrom).
Karakteriziran je neugodnim senzacijama u nogama i potrebom za pomicanjem nogu. Navedene senzacije različito se opisuju pa se često spominje mravinjanje, gmizanje, bockanje, trzanje, grčenje, trnjenje ili čak bolne senzacije koje izazivaju prekomjernu potrebu za pomicanjem nogu.
Simptomi se uglavnom javljaju ili pogoršavaju tijekom večernjih sati. Kretanje može privremeno ublažiti simptome kao i masaža i stavljanje hladnih obloga.
Iako vrlo čest, sindrom nemirnih nogu još je uvijek slabo prepoznat i često pogrešno dijagnosticiran. CyberMed - by Lingua 5B
