Thankfully I’ve not had a proper problem since my ITband went in circa 2007. The tight IT band pulled my other knee ligament out of alignment and instead of running smoothly it rubbed the bone and was agony. It was diagnosed by a physio and orthotics and exercises seemed to manage it. I could occasionally feel the IT band tightening after that and had to stretch it out and perhaps related suffered from a sore (sometimes)/clicky (all the time) hip. A failing BB was enough to trigger the hip pain More recently in 2013 or 14 I had a bike fit which identified a leg length discrepancy and I no longer suffer from a sore hip or have to stretch out the IT band or wear the orthotics since that was corrected with a shim.
