Description
Is iliotibial band pain a friction problem? Or a load problem?
On this week’s BJSM podcast, Dr Rich Willy (T: @rwilly2003) and BJSM’s Daniel Friedman (T: @ddfriedman) discuss the clinical management of iliotibial band pain.
Dr. Richard Willy PT, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the School of Physical Therapy, University of Montana (Missoula, MT, USA). He received his PhD in Biomechanics and Movement Science from the University of Delaware and his master of physical therapy from Ohio University. In addition to his research, Dr. Willy has been a clinician for 18 years specialising in the treatment of the injured runner. His research aims to develop clinically effective treatments for patellofemoral pain syndrome, Achilles tendon injuries and tibial stress fractures.
In this podcast, Dr Willy discusses:
· How to assess the injured runner with ITB pain
· Misconceptions about ITB pain – it’s not a friction problem and you need some tightness!
· How to progress the rehabilitation in managing ITB pain
· Is there a role for stretching and foam rolling?
