My chiro also said that ITBS pain can be anywhere along the IT band, and that the hip can be involved as well. He even hinted that hip involvement might come...
ITBS is predominantly associated with lateral knee pain according to virtually every literature source I can find. The knee pain associated with ITBS is ...
My problem with medical research is that I think a lot of it is biased to start with. There's no doubt that my hip pain is caused by a tight IT band, and that...
I thought i would chime in with my 2 cents. I received a cortisone shot which will be 4 weeks ago this friday. The first two weeks i felt like a million...

I think it's interesting that skiers and ice skating racers are not found here -- mainly bicyclists and runners. I think that you're implying that skiers...

I've been suffering from ITBS for 5 months now with hip pain. Can't run for more than 10 minutes without pain. Please tell me, has ANYONE out there EVER made a...
I think you will always have to be cautious after having ITBS - I struggled for 3 years. Finally had surgery last October (04). I did my first half-ironman a...
I can't run due to my ITBS but biking doesn't seem to bother it. You might want to give it a try and see if it causes you any pain. If your body doesn't like...

Kathy, ooh, twice a week! Sounds like Heaven! I can barely afford to go once every two weeks for massage therapy. Interesting that they just massaged around...
My PT showed me this neat way to massage small, deep areas. Smear the area with a good massage cream (one that won't evaporate like lotion does), and use the...
