one of the best explanations on the internet!

I wish knowledge like this was more accessible 9-10 years ago, what a blessing

Someone that actually knows what they are talking about. Very informative. Thank you.

I had this syndrome for almost 5 weeks and watched a lot of videos about it. But this video is by far the best one. Super informative. Straight to the point. Just for the people suffering the same injury. Some tips: 1. Please be patient. 2. Listen to what is said in this video 3. Don't bother watching any other one (except for ways to strengthen the Glutes Medius) 4. Go for a physiotherapist.

The best explanation I’ve got so far, even much better than my doctor’s .... thank you so much for your time and info.

You are a professor as all professors should be, I'm not a medic and undersood every single word, with full respect sir, thank you.

after 190283 videos 10293 doctors and 1 MRT, this is the first time that I understand what I have. Thank you!!!!!

I come from a biomedical background with basic understanding of anatomy and I cannot articulate enough how helpful this video has been- straight to the point, well structured and the information can be understood and appreciated across all levels of understanding.. I think this might explain some of the pain I have been experiencing- best of luck I have subscribed 👍

Best video I've seen on ITB Syndrome causes and remediation options. Fantastic!!!

This is the best video I've seen on the topic. And I've seen A LOT

Wonderful resources, I am really hoping you expand this library, medial knee issues, and even though Knees are your speciality, opinions on ankle mobility issues and hips, etc that contribute to knee problems would be great. Really love the way you explain and give the breakdowns.

Thank you! I watched 5 videos before this and didn’t get the answers I needed until I came here!!!

I appreciate the wealth of knowledge that was put into this video. Recently started having pain on the outside of my left knee that resulted in reduced physical activities. Can't wait to get back! Thanks again!

This is hands down the best video about the topic!

Best explanation for a particular condition. Very precise and to the point. I wish Dr. Bellemans keeps posting videos to his channel. Though there might be less subscribers I am sure the views will be high. This will be my first go to channel if I suffer from any orthopedic issues in future.

Such a great channel! This video and the one from TKA are fantastic.Thank you Prof. Bellemans!

Best explanation. This is the second video I ve listen to this prof he's knowledgeable.

Amazing video. Good to understand very easily from a long time suffering of ITB pain.

Thank you Prof. Bellemans! Your video and detail explanation are very useful and helpful for me to understand what is going on with my knees and how I should do next. Thanks again!

Thanks prof. Started running today and I’m experienced signs and symptoms suggestive of ITBS!

the only video which has covered the info i needed

Excellent, an exact video explaining what I’m experiencing. Thank you

Dr. Belleman, thank you! Great professor! Blessins!

Thank you so much I am now able to finally identify and treat my pain that’s been lingering the last several months when ever I run 4 miles.

I’ve had knee pain in the past mainly dull from walking long distances, and sometimes sharp pain in that area when doing squats or leg extensions. I had walked about 5 miles today at work in new shoes I got for christmas and I felt fine most of the day. By the end of my shift I was in excruciating pain in that exact spot where the IT band is on my left knee. I struggled to walk to my car in the parking lot and couldn’t wait to sit down. I’ve been in bed now for a while trying to massage the area. I suspect I have a slightly longer leg than the other. Thank you for this video it helped me to understand more of what I’m dealing with

Brilliant - I have watched loads of videos but yours made the most sense, had a great test and had potential solutions. Fantastic and I will start with the insole. Only those that really know what they are talking about can me make is sound easy. Thanks very much

Best best best explaination on itb till date on internet

Honestly this is the best video about itb

Excellent review of the diagnosis and treatment options. Thanks !!

Most understandable explanation on knee pain compared to other videos.. Very much helpful.. By understanding it now I can plan more effective way of running and stretching.. Thank you

Brilliantly done - thank you.

Professors love cutting you up ... I have fixed a very problematic issue having bow legs and a leg length discrepancy . And I did it naturally . Foot orthotics . Stretches and exercises to balance the hips up and strengthening the surrounding muscles of the knee and hips .

I suffered from IT band syndrome pain on my knee and thanks to the information on this and other videos I was able to do the exercises and treat myself. I changed my shoes and did the rehab plus meds and ice and I'm way way better off now. I just have to really put it to the test later this month

You knowledge is a true blessing to the mankind! Please keep it sharing and showering Sir!

Great video! So helpful and informative thank you!

Extremely well explained!

Phenomenal ! Thank you so much for sharing. I just did dome of the stretching exercises and already feel better.

Easy and great explanation, thank you

I think I found the cause of my pain and weird feeling in my leg/knee, the symptoms are basically all there, and the pain it’s located right where this video shows, this was so helpful, hopefully I’m not wrong and I can treat myself to get back on track!

Awesome video, thank you so much.

Thank you, very well explained. Really appreciate this video.

So well explained sir,thanks a lot.

Thank you so much for this video. Point to point explanation any layman can understand.

Great information! Thanks!

Excellent explanation. Thank you.

Dank voor de zeer duidelijke uitleg. Dit heb ik aan mijn knie sinds dit jaar, vanaf ca. 8 km joggen of ca. 15 km wandelen. In combinatie met mijn heuppijn, die ik sinds kort erbij heb gekregen, krijg ik de iliotibiaal frictiesyndroomklachten nu al na 1 uur wandelen. Ik zal een zooltje in mijn wandelschoenen plaatsen (ik heb beenlengteverschil) en ik ga de heupspieren versterken. Stretchen doe ik altijd al.

More specifically, I will strengthen the gluteus medius and reduce tension in the ITB but also the vastus lateralis, TFL, gluteus maximus. Got it ;-)

Beautifully explained 👍

Very educative,Thanks alot.

Spot on,,, well done!!!!

what a brilliant video!

Very useful info. Thank you for sharing.

Fantastic and informative video, thank you🤩💪🏻

Wow...great stuff. I am bow legged, and I suspected that might be causing my IT band issues. I am waiting on insoles I ordered which I am hoping will help, along with more regular stretching. Thanks so much for your very helpful video.

Best explanation ♥️

Thanks for your knowledge

Very helpful video!

Very well explained. Kudos from Sanfrancisco

Best explanation ever.I have been struggling with the same problem for years, and I have never found any helpful video like yours;Thank you so much

Thank you very much Doctor

Thankyou so much prof ❤️

2016 until now feeling this pain..

great video thank you very much!

Thank You... Good information.. I guess I having similar pains in my knee.. as I run a lot lately...

It’s really helpful information.

Best explanation doctor 👍

Thank you so much sir for this great video

This was very clearly explained. Thank you so much for taking the time to prepare this video. I understand the condition much better and understand that my slightly varus knees is making me more susceptible of getting the ITBS. I was wondering why my friends who would cycle the same distance as me did not have any problems. I will try to do the suggested exercises to strengthen the gluteus muscles.

Great stuff! I’ve had runner’s knee for several years now, and it was only when I started stretching and specifically targeting the gluteus medius that I could do long distance running without pain. Unfortunately it still appears after a certain number of miles, but I’ll try some of the other treatments in this video and see if they help. Specifically foam rolling and checking if the leg that hurts is longer than the other. Very informative, thank you!

Great video.

Very helpful

Very nice explanation

Superb presentation.

Very good video 👌 this may give some support o people who start running

Great video! Now I know I developed pain here! I have been wearing an aircast for 9 weeks on my opposite leg due to a fracture foot. Now I will see if it goes away now that my foot is out of the cast. Thanks.

Thank you!!

Great stuff, keep it coming please

Now I can finally fix myself.. thank you

SO HELPFUL! Especially the moving diagram/examples of the ITB crossing over with flexion. I've been experiencing lateral knee pain when hiking (particularly downhill). My PT has recommended glut med and foot exercises but its been on going for nearly a year and I hunting for more info/exercises. I will try those hip drops.
