INJURY:<br />
IT Band Syndrome (noun): an injury that<br />
is marked by pain on the side of the knee<br />
and results from inflammation of the<br />
IT Band due to overuse (as in long-distance<br />
running) as it compresses across the side<br />
condyle of the knee when flexed and<br />
extended repeatedly.<br />
SIGNS & SYMPTOMS:<br />
IT Band<br />
• Runners report a sharp burning pain on<br />
the outside of their knee during their run.<br />
• The pain occurs when the knee is at<br />
30 degrees of flexion due to the lower<br />
leg rotating inward causing the IT Band to<br />
repeatedly compress against the side of<br />
the knee.<br />
SOLUTION:<br />
