A member asked:
Can you have something like restless legs syndrome but in the arms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Although most commonly affecting the lower legs, restless leg syndrome can also affect the lower back and arms. The symptoms tend to be worse at night and also with inactivity and are accompanied by an urge to move. Moving only temporarily alleviates the symptoms.
