The short version is that you should really be doing hip abductor and external rotator strength, and virtually all runners with ITBS have found a foam roller (or even a 3" diameter section of PVC pipe) to be indispensable. Stretching and swapping out shoes may help too, but the hip strength is often the key. Are you working with a good PT who has experience with runners?
