Is this ITB??
![[Deleted User]](https://wa.vanillicon.com/a8471cf5809fd13eaf1db5b89e192bfd_100.png)
I've got pain in the outside of my leg - just below the hip - but I'm not sure if its ITB or not. I know ITB is discussed frequently on these forums, so I'm hoping somebody will know!
My knee is OK I think, but the hip hurts when I lie on it - especially if my legs are bent at the knee - enough to wake me at night. It also hurts if I rotate my knee outwards - like sitting cross legged - or sitting with my foot on the opposite knee. And I can feel a tender spot - but no lumps or swelling.
This came on very gradually about 8 weeks ago for no obvious reason and it isn't getting any better. I'm not running much at all - only about 10miles a week.
Any thoughts?
