Iliotibial Band Syndrome is also referred to as ITBS. It is a common overuse injury that runner’s incur by running too much. The syndrome happens when the ligament running from the outer portion of the thigh to the outer aspect of the shin (the iliotibial band) becomes inflamed or is too tight. You need your iliotibial band to stabilize the knee joint during the act of running. If the iliotibial band becomes inflamed or is too short, it becomes painful to run. If the problem is severe, you will not be able to run, perhaps for weeks or months at a time.
