Q & A for The 16% – A Runner with IT Band Syndrome… Really?

August 13, 2020 By Bill Leave a Comment

I think the representation of the IT Band is still misunderstood even though we have some good dissection information that should have clarified things 14 years ago.

Hope you have your @neurocoffee handy.

From Tony:

I have a runner diagnosed with a right IT Band friction syndrome where he gets pain with running at the lateral knee. We’ve made some progress but he’s still unable to run much distance without increasing pain. He doesn’t have much pain with normal activities. He’s got a bit of a varus knee, limited hip IR, a pronated foot, weak gluteus medius, but pretty decent dorsiflexion. When we work on these things, he gets better but we can’t make the changes stick. Any ideas?
