Hello,
The location and movement of a pain gives clues as to what is going on. The key point is where in the leg. Restless leg is a muscle cramp. Diabetic nerve damage is in the far ends of the lower limbs (feet). and other issues are in particular other spots.
Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman
