Iliotibial Band Syndrome Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
5. Pain Lingers after Activity
A lot of the time, if you are doing something that is causing you discomfort, then the solution is to stop doing that activity. Depending on the condition, the pain can stop almost straightaway when you stop being active.
This is not the case with iliotibial band syndrome, however. During exercise, the iliotibial band can become inflamed, and this will lead to pain. The inflammation will not die down quickly, however, and this means that the pain will also persist. The pain can linger for some time, potentially making it difficult for the patient to go about their day-to-day lives.
