You might be surprised to know that about 10% of Americans suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS). Imagine crashing on the bed after a busy day at work, but not being able to sleep as even though your body and mind are ready to retire, your legs ache and there is a prickling feeling in your feet, which does not let you sleep.

Do you wake up at night with a leg spasm in some part of your leg? It could be mild or extremely severe. A cramp is a temporary reflexive contraction of the muscle that can last for a few or several minutes. These cramps occur either in a skeletal muscle or smooth muscle.

Cellulitis is a bacterial skin infection that reaches the deep layers of the skin and the tissues causing pain, itching, redness, and swelling. While the common cause of cellulitis is a bacterial infection, a weak immune system, chicken pox, diabetes, drug misuse, contact with contaminated things, can put one at a higher risk of catching the infection.

About hundreds of thousands of adults every year get affected by a painful and blistering skin infection called leg cellulitis. While the condition can occur in any part of the body, it is usually the lower leg that is commonly affected. Leg cellulitis is a bacterial disease that occurs when streptococcus and staphylococcus enter the body through exposed cracks.

When we refer to phlegm, it is commonly sticky, thick mucus that stays at the back of your throat when you are ill. It is a common occurrence when you have a cold. It captures many particles making it difficult for you to swallow food or drink any fluids. Mucus tends to secure your respiratory framework.

Our mucous membranes secrete a thick liquid substance called phlegm. It is generated to support our respiratory system. The phlegm-secreting membranes are present in the mouth, nose, throat, sinuses and lungs. Excessive phlegm may cause coughing. We mostly become aware of its presence at the back of the throat when we have a cold or flu.
