R Knee, Iliotibial Band Syndrome
2018-06-06 – 2019-06-03
Grade: 2
Persistent ITB issue affecting right knee. Ongoing from June 2018 through to.... TBD... (hoping there will be an end date to this but due to possible arthritis as a factor, may be a permanent thing... please say it ain't so)
(Left knee was also affected originally in June 2018, but has been fine since then.)
Resolved by changing to more stable shoes to address mild overpronation. Sudden resolution in June 2019 after nearly an entire year of ongoing issues despite many hours spent on rehab/rolling/stretching/strengthening. I finally stopped all of that out of disappointment that it hadn't seemed to help. A few months later, lo and behold the ITB issues stopped. The only thing I can think that could be the reason for resolution was finally changing to more stable shoes (New Balance QOM) instead of my old favourites (Inov-8 Trail Talon 250).
