What Can Lead To Constant Twitching And Shooting Pain In The Leg?
Has your doctor considered Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS)?
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I will like to know if you have been evaluated for restless leg syndrome. Your symptoms are very suggestive. The diagnosis is mainly clinical. Often, we measure iron stores as low levels are often associated with RLS and make symptoms worse.
In the interim, try to identify any factors that make them worse. Avoid caffeine, exercise often, encourage biking, walking, leg massage, etc. and avoid positions and postures that make symptoms worse.
If your doctor settles for RLS, he can then prescribe a medication to help with this. It is not acceptable for us to prescribe drugs online.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards,
Dr. Ivo Ditah, Internal Medicine Specialist
