I have been faced with this injury for the better part of 4 weeks now and can tell you that it isn't fun. It shoots your heart rate up into the sky, you try to compensate with your other leg and before you know it, you are back to taking a break from your workout plan.
This post here is set mostly for our DEP's and other members who would like to get back in the shape they were in during their glory days.
The pain most commonly associated with ITB is on the outer portion of your knees. As usual, the best thing you can do is practice RICE (Rest, Ice, Compress and Elevate).
Here are some of the links I compiled from google, wikipedia and some other search engines and medical references.
