Iliotibial band syndrome is a condition that can cause pain in the connective tissue around the thigh bone. The ligament that runs from the pelvic bone to the shinbone can become tight and rub against the thigh bone, causing pain. This condition is more common in distance runners.

I have been visiting the clinic for the past two years and my experience has been great. Dr. Kant is very knowledgeable and he treats his patients with full dedication and patience. I underwent treatment for my neck and back pain and I got relief after just a few sessions of dry needling. So, I would recommend everyone to visit KALP HEALTH CARE for any kind of physiotherapy treatment.
At the age of 53, a back problem is scary when a doctor tells you that you need 10 days of bed rest or surgery! I went to Kalp expecting the usual steps of physiotherapy, but I couldn't even stand up straight or get out of bed without shooting pain. This is an example of not judging a book by its cover. Dr. Kant is a simple man but a magician when it comes to his treatment. He is passionate and positive about his treatment and knows the human body like the back of his hand. A dedicated team with Dr. Monika and Dr. Rakesh got me on my feet in just 3 days. This is the best treatment I could have asked for!
Dr. Kant and his clinic are excellent in treating muscular and spinal issues - it's very clean and hygienic. Dr. Kant has great understanding and knowledge, quickly reaching to the root of what's wrong and able to provide Relief within a few sessions. I found a solution to my spine problem after seeking treatment from Dr. Kant - I had tried all kinds of treatments before but hadn't been able to find any relief.

Most people with IT band syndrome can still walk with it, there may be mild pain or an ache. The time or distance that they can walk for may however be limited as walking for too long may aggravate symptoms. Generally, it is advised to reduce step count, especially important for those who walk a lot, or those who have particularly severe or irritable symptoms
Sitting with crossed legs on the floor, or crossed legs on a chair can aggravate pain because it puts the leg in a position that tightens the IT band. It is best to keep legs uncrossed, and either bent to about 90º or fully straight, as these positions will reduce the tension of the IT band.
On MRI imaging IT band syndrome will show up in most cases. An area of fluid and oedema will show around the lateral femoral condyle and the fat pad under the IT band. In choric cases thickening of the IT band over the lateral femoral condyle might be seen also. If these findings are present on a scan it can confirm a clinical diagnosis of IT band syndrome.
The IT band runs from the outside of our pelvis, over our hip and down the outside of our leg where it inserts into our shin bone. Therefore, a tight IT band will more commonly cause pain at the knee but can also cause hip pain.
Maintaining core and lower extremity strength and flexibility and monitoring your activity best prevents ITBS. It is important to modify your activity and contact your physical therapist soon after first feeling pain. Research indicates that when soft tissues are irritated and the offending activity is continued, the body does not have time to repair the injured area. This often leads to persistent pain, and the condition becomes more difficult to resolve.
