Did your wife have an MRI? I had 3. I also had 1 cortisone injection in my knee, as well as 3 in my hip (bursa). My first orthopedic surgeon had similar...
I don't know if this would apply to your wife, and it's a miserable thing to have to do and not good for your general health. In 1999 both of my IT bands...
Also, w/r/t scar tissue, I don't think I've ever had a doctor who suggested massage of places where scar tissues might form. PTs, on the other hand, are more...

Katie - Let you doctor know RIGHT AWAY. It's probably nothing, but that can be a definite sign of a blood clot and as a nurse I have seen how fatal those can...
-Eric, I hope that you continue with your recovery. Could you please tell me as specifically as possible about what you had done and about your recovery after...
If her itbs is caused from muscle imbalances, stopping all workout, weight workouts, everything is not going to help the situation. I had a weak inner vmo...

Note to people with shoulder problems: You have to support a lot of your body weight with one shoulder when you use the roller on the IT band. However,...
