A member asked:
What is a way to stop restless legs without quitting caffeine? my right leg is the one. feel the need to crack it too.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Avoid stimulants: Taking a stimulant such as cafeine will iikely make restless legs worse - so that would be the first step. It would n't make sense to prescribe a medication to control RLS if you are taking caffeine.
