Iliotibial Band Syndrome
Iliotibial band syndrome aka IT band syndrome refers to the overuse and repetitive flexion injury to lateral knee. As a result of this condition, the iliotibial band becomes irritated, taut, and inflamed. Risk factors of IT band syndrome are: - excessive sitting - walking - lack of flexibility - weak gluteal and abdominal muscles - weak knee extensors, flexors, and hip abductors - knee arthritis - bowlegs - flat feet Reference: https://www.healthline.com/health/it-band#causes Image via: https://www.barringtonortho.com/services/iliotibial-band-syndrome
