Reason for useGuernsey
We are led to think of this remedy where we find an irresistible desire to move, or change the position every little while, followed by great relief for a short time , when they must again move, and again experience the same relief for a short time; this condition is usually worse at night. After resting for a time , or on getting up from sleep, when first moving about, a painful stiffness is felt which wears off from continued motion ; the patient is made worse generally when beginning to move, but relief is experienced from continued motion-- e.g. , a nursing mother may have sore nipples, and when the child begins to nurse, the nipple hurts exceedingly, but on continued nursing it becomes much easier.
