The IT Band is a common pain generator for the outside part of the knee but it is not the only tissue that can cause pain in this area.
Even if the IT Band happens to be the tissue causing pain, it is usually not the actual problem.
In order to get down to the real reason your knee hurts, we have to take a deeper look into how we are moving, what we are asking our bodies to do, and other factors that can lead to an overload to this tissue.
