ITB? tight ITB's give me pain on the outside of the knee, usual stretching, rolling and glute work applies
cookiemonster-
I'm imagining so, yeah.
Am hesitant with foam rolling, seems too easy to get wrong. Have been doing light stretching and very minor posterior strength stuff but have been holding off doing it with any gusto until it feels more normal - I don't want to exacerbate it! Do you find you can do this kind of remedial work while the pain is around? I've been thinking more of resting and taking preventative measures to stop it reoccurring.
Obviously a good physio is the answer but funemployed for now.

10 days off running now and still some strange numbness/tightness down the outside of my left knee.
Rarely develops into pain but want it gone before I dive back in, this time with a renewed focus on sustainability, so back to the gym and working on mobility.
Goal: be able to get around long runs (up to 20km) in the Peak District
