I had ITBS about 5 years ago, caused by suddenly increasing my weekly running distance.
I went to see the doctor at my gym in Mornington Crescent, www.kieser-training.co.uk and he sorted it with a cortisone injection. I changed my workout programme to include the smaller leg muscles, eased off on the running a bit, and it's not been back.
When I'm training for a race now, I only increase my weekly mileage by 10%, seems to work for me.
