Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Your condition seems to be matching with restless legs syndrome. In this condition, there is irresistible urge to move the legs. Cause is unclear but this is not an uncommon problem.

There are few medicines for this, like Pramipexole and Ropinirole. These are prescription medications and you need to talk to your doctor regarding these.

Hope this helps. I will be available for further follow up.

Thank you.
