Iliotibial Band Syndrome Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
6. Pain in Legs
Most of the discomfort associated with iliotibial band syndrome will be located in the knee area, but this is not the only place that will hurt.
The iliotibial band actually travels from the top of the hip to the shin, and this means that you can also experience pain away from the knee area. Patients with iliotibial band syndrome will sometimes find that they can experience pain up and down their legs. This is down to the iliotibial band becoming inflamed away from the knee area. This will likely make it even more difficult for the patient to be mobile.
