Support your cause and increase awareness by wearing a ribbon.

July 18–25.

More than 12 million Americans have severe leg pains called restless leg syndrome (RLS), and this education and awareness week, sponsored by the Pharmacy Council on Women’s Health, is a means to educate and to call attention to various treatments and diagnoses to assist patients with this problem.

RLS causes a sensation in the legs or arms that can most closely be compared to a burning, itching, or tickling sensation in the muscles. Some controversy surrounds the marketing of drug treatments for RLS. It is a ‘spectrum’ disease with some people experiencing only a minor annoyance and others experiencing major issues.

A Dark Blue Awareness Ribbon is the color chosen to show awareness for RLS.  Although others also use blue for their cause, just wearing the ribbon will allow conversation opportunities to discuss your cause. 

 Many of the items you may need to create your own version of this idea can be found on our website by clicking on the ribbon link in my post.  If you don’t see exactly what you are looking for, please call the phone number on that page.
