Ok, so I was wondering if anyone has experienced IT Band pain (at least that's what 3 different doctors have identified it as although I'm still a skeptic) on the outside of knee. I'm not talking about tightness up the leg, just pain while running and when pressure is applied to where the Band forks on the side of the knee. I've had this for about 9 months, seen 3 orthopedics, gotten 3 cortisone shots, done all kinds of rehab stuff and taken anti-inflamitories - pretty much done everything short of getting surgery. It sidelined me for my whole freshman year at college, and I don't really know what to do about it now. Maybe I'm done, who knows...maybe you do?
