Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) is a common overuse injury characterized by pain

Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) is a common overuse injury characterized by pain on the outer side of the knee. It occurs when the iliotibial band, a thick band of tissue that runs along the outer thigh from the hip to the knee, becomes tight or inflamed due to repetitive friction against the underlying structures.
