The Obvious Symptoms Of IT Band Syndrome

Knee Swelling

Men, you're likely going to get a lot of knee swelling with this condition. It's because your IT band reaches your knee! Of course, it's behind your thighbone first. It's supposed to make your leg bend and extend very, very well with your bursa's help. That's why it gets to your knee! Sadly, men, inflammation sets in when you overwork your IT band and leg. Most of the time, it's down to improper stretching and not enough rest. Symptoms don't set in at first, but inflammation around the IT band will trigger knee swelling at some point! Be ready for this, men.
