Since there is no cure for RLS, the available restless leg treatment is to try and relieve the symptoms to make you more comfortable.
If your symptoms are mild, treatment may consist of stretching exercises, warm baths or heating pad. Massaging the legs or vitamin supplements might also be considered.
After you've tried the exercises, massaging, etc. and still have symptoms that just won't lighten up you might consider medication.
Discuss with your doctor medications such as Requip or Mirapex. Other drugs used are similar to the ones used to treat Parkinson's disease which increase the neurotransmitter dopamine that affects movement.
In extreme cases pain medications can be useful. Since certain pain medications can be additive, caution should be used.
