ran Boston 3 weeks ago....gave running a rest for about 1.5 weeks. Just started up again and after going out about 3 miles started feeling slight hip pain...
could be itbs, sure sounds similar... In my experience, symptoms last more or less until you stop running AND find the right combo of treatment/prevention for...
... Where was the hip pain? A tight IT band can cause hip pain (which you can stretch out by leaning over sideways with the foot of the bad leg behind the...
Yea, I agree with Ann, If your getting sciatica type pain, don't be leaning over. When you need something off the ground, bend your knees, to get down to the...
After three weeks off, I have been ITB pain free for about 5 days. Today, I ran one mile at about 2:30 slower than normal and it felt great. I'm an "every day"...
Greg, It might be best to wait a day to see if you become sore at all tomorrow. Try out an every other day, or run every 3rd day approach to make sure you...
... Thanks for the feedback. I will probably stick to every other day to start of. My next questions is... How much, and how soon? So, if I finish this week,...
Any help is welcome:) I will keep my story short. My name is Dan and I am training to be a Paramedic Firefighter in California. My training is pretty intense...
Dan, To me it sounds like you are treating it correctly, if it is IT band friction syndrome. Daily stretching, exercises, massage and refraining from anything...
In addition to having CP and occasional ITBS, in the last 2 years I've developed this strange bump in the proximal end of my R clavicle (I also have about 5...
I agree to never take no for an answer! Today I ran 1 mile successfully with NO PAIN!!!! A year ago, I didn't know if I'd ever walk again without pain, and...
I find my Tri bike really irritates my IT Bands where my mountain bike does not. I don't think the my IT problems were really caused by my running and that...
Perhaps your saddle height on your tri-bike is a little too high, and you are toeing down at the bottom of each pedal stroke. I have no idea how this would...
I was pretty sure I set the seat height the same......but I double checked. I was right I did have them the same. I measure 29-3/4" from the center of the...
I'm no bike expert. However there is a difference for me when I'm wearing regular tennis shoes, and the cycling shoes. The cycling shoes is stiff and hard, and...
After re-reading your posts I had a couple other thoughts. Sounds like your form is a lot different when your on the mtb and the tri bike. You mentioned being...
hmmm, that could be the issue, when wearing normal shoes in the rat trap, its not like my feet are held rigid like they are on my MTB with the shimano shoes...
try putting your MTB pedals and shoes on your tri bike... ... From: itbs@yahoogroups.com [mailto:itbs@yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of rovert99935 Sent: Monday,...
maybe someone already mentioned this, but perhaps not... tri bikes are made with a geometry that is more forward than other types of bikes, in order to make...
I would absolutely go and get fitted (or re-fitted) on your tri-bike. I started out with my IT band injury from running. Then the pain (after a couple years)...
Last year i was out of work for months. Is this true Itb can also affect the hip area. The pain is still there even after physical therapy. Iam so frustrated,...
Yes, a tight IT band can hurt in the hip. In fact, when mine starts to tighten up, that's where I feel it first. Two good ways to stretch it out at the hip: ...
I believe I have ITBFS but haven't had it officially diagnosed (yet). I've tried to due a fare amount of research/reading so hopefully I'll keep the ...
I would go see an orthopedic surgeon. I too have a lot of hip pain, specifically in the areas you described. I've had a few cortisone injections to help it...
As a cyclist, I personally would opt for starting with a non-invasive approach. Try massage therapy (deep tissue) or perhaps physical therapy. Keep up with...

I've got hip pain from a tight itband too. Like Ann mentioned, once you have it a little more under control, when you first feel it tighten stretch it out a...
this is the second time i've posted; here's a sumary of my problem: i came down with itbs (right knee) back in mid-february from overtraining, and took a month...
Jon: I fell your pain...last year I encountered a serious bout of ITBS while training for the Nashville Marathon. Like you, I tried everything, rest, Foam...
