Thanks for the query.
Restless syndrome can happen alone or a part of Parkinson’s disease. It is more prevalent among old aged individuals.
We have to rule out orher causes like cerebral demyelination also.
Consult a neurologist and get evaluated, Detailed evaluation is required to rule out possible inteacranial causes.
Once the diagnosis of restless leg syndrome is confirmed, you might require drugs like ropinirole.
Wishing all the best.
