Restless legs
Restless leg syndrome has been linked to an iron deficiency. This condition is characterized by a strong desire to move your legs even when they are at rest. It can also cause itching and crawling feelings in your feet and legs. It's frequently worst at night, which means you can have difficulty sleeping.
The exact causes of primary restless leg syndrome are unclear. However, it is known to occur as a result of a variety of medical conditions, including iron deficiency anemia. The single most consistent finding and the strongest environmental risk factor associated with this condition is iron insufficiency. Restless leg syndrome is six times more common in people with iron deficiency anemia than in the general population.
