RSL help

[Grandkids2]

Hi my name is Tina and I’m trying to find some kind of oils or creams that work good and I’ve had rls for 10 years and have been trying to avoid prescription meds cause I’m on so many other meds and about to go crazy with the rls, hope someone has some good info and it has now moved to my arms.

Firstly, what medications are you on at present? Many can be triggers for rls, in themselves.

Secondly, look at food intake- such as high salt, sweeteners, processed foods, alcohol and so on. Keeping a food diary can help with this.

As for a cream or oil, you can make up a magnesium oil yourself. Half and half by volume, of Epsom salts and water. Rub on legs. It may itch a bit, but after 20 minutes you can wash it off. A warm Epsom salt bath can also help. 2or3 cups of salts in the bathwater. Not more than 20 minutes soak.🤗

Other things like checking serum ferritin level may be a factor - should be over 75.

Good luck.

Ditto everything Madlegs has asked/advised.

«Relaxing Leg Cream» by Magnilife is a good one. This can be ordered from Amazon and found in Walgreens (if in the States).

I know you only said creams and oils, but support stocking work well (for me) too.

Good luck!

Best oil I can recommend is full spectrum cannabis oil. Works better than CBD and effective for treating RLS for many.

For eating or rubbing?
