    Hi, I have intermittent troubles with IT. The only thing that really works is a good sports massage. Hurts like anything but does work.  I have a roller too which gives some relief. 

    I was told that mine was playing up due to knee not tracking properly and ligaments being loose. It meant that the leg not working properly and the IT band became inflamed. 

    Good luck. I know how painful they can be

    Almost everyone has some degree of difficulty. Continue the leg lifts, massage vit e oil into the entire knee a couple times a day and have patience. I was one that had lots of trouble but it finally quit giving me problems
