Aching

Commonly, people experiencing IT band syndrome complain of sharp and shooting pains around the knee joint. However, it's also normal for some people to experience mild to moderate aching.5‘Articles.’ Cedars Sinai, 2021, www.cedars-sinai.org/health-library/diseases-and-conditions/i/iliotibial-band-syndrome.html

This aching can be localized to the knee joint or radiate all the way up to the thigh or hip. In many cases, aching caused by IT band syndrome is triggered by physical activity and may not be present at rest.5‘Articles.’ Cedars Sinai, 2021, www.cedars-sinai.org/health-library/diseases-and-conditions/i/iliotibial-band-syndrome.html
