re: OT runners opinion needed

If it's your IT band you more than likely wouldn't have medial knee pain, pain radiates.. But more than likely not medially in this case. IT band runs perpendicular to your knee. Outside and down your knee, well not so much knee, but where you hinge at. That's the IT area. If your having medial knee pain you could have just tweaked something. REST and ice that bitch for 20 min a pop several times a day and take anti inflammatorys per directions. Don't run for a couple weeks. If it's better after that then your good, if not then see an ortho. I'm not an ortho, but I worked for an ortho group for 6 years.
