Iliotibial Band Syndrome Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
10. Redness on Knee
Just looking at the knee might be enough to tell you that there is something wrong. Not only will it be swollen, as mentioned, but you may also find that the knee is red in appearance. The redness is most likely to be found on the outside of the knee as this is where the iliotibial band is found.
In addition to redness, you may also find that the area is warm to the touch. This is because the body is hard at work trying to repair the area as quickly as possible. These symptoms might occur without any long-term issue being present, but if the symptoms don’t go away, then you should get it checked out of you haven’t done so already.
