What Are The Symptoms Of Leg Syndrome ?
My granddaughter is 2.5 years old. She is obese by the weight charts. Her legs are very heavy. This is where most of her wieght is. She is active and happy, but has trouble sleeping at night. Could this be an indication of swelling or water retension? Or some kind of a restless leg syndrome?
