Easing Restless Legs Syndrome And Varicose Veins

By Patty Goff


The single distinct sign of having restless legs syndrome is a throbbing, painful, creeping, pulling, or any other uncomfortable sensation in the lower limbs accompanied by the urge to move them, hence the name. They happen usually at night or when a person is resting, and disappear in the morning. As long at the movement of their feet and legs happen, sufferers seem to be content.

Most treatments for restless leg syndrome are targeted toward some underlying disease or illness. But for varicose veins Austin experts, those unsightly spider veins are also the culprits behind shaking leg syndrome. Diabetes, anemia, obesity, kidney diseases and pregnancy are also associated with the condition.

Being knowledgeable of your family background in terms of medical conditions will help you be prepared for this movement disorder. Women are also more at risk than men, though it will occur at any age. If you are already a sufferer, you may consider these practices that are not old wives tales.

Exercise is that other drug we take for granted. Getting into an active lifestyle will aid your blood circulation, hence reducing the blood pools inside your veins. Stretch as often, although it is strongly discouraged to overkill the action. Moderate to easily forming the habit is the key, and cardio exercises are best for those attention deficit legs.

Stay low on the cortisol levels and invest more on dopamine and serotonin and oxytocin. That means lay down the stress and feed your soul with happiness, comfort, and love. In case you are not aware, stress is the top killer of mankind today as stress is known to trigger all sorts of unpleasant things not just mentally, but also emotionally and physically.

Giving yourself a simultaneous cold and warm compress compensates for the urge to move your excruciating legs. Bathing in warm water or dipping yourself in a whirlpool or spa can also be a reinvigorating experience not just for your limbs but for your whole body. The good old massage is also its chicken soup.

To fight against sleep interference, apply some martial law on your body clock. It will brainwash your body to fall asleep on your preferred schedule sans the rude interruption of the shaking legs. Convert your bedroom into an oasis for the slumber hungry.

Over the counter medications will help take away pain if it can not be helped. Nonsteriodal anti inflammatory drugs are the best for this such as ibuprofen and mefenamic acid, but long term use is discouraged. Dietary supplements rich in vitamins and minerals will also provide you the necessary elements to prevent your symptoms from coming up again. Prescription medications are also available and are recommended if it is too unbearable. Gabapentin, a drug for epileptic seizures, can also annihilate extreme cases of the syndrome. Talk to your doctor which medication is right for you.

And as an every day rule, crossing your limbs might look sexy, but they are the root of leg condition kind of evil. Neither sitting for far too long nor standing for hours will make a varicose veins a myth. Maybe the most beautiful moment you can take after a long, busy day is to prop up your feet while reading a good book or watching your favorite movie to ward off stress and let your body do the rest.
