Updated April 25, 2016. Iliotibial band friction syndrome is a common cause of knee and hip pain in athletes. Knee pain from this injury is most commonly felt along the outside (lateral) knee and the lower thigh. IT band syndrome may also result in a nagging or acute pain on the outside of the hip.

The IT band starts at the hip and runs along the outer thigh and attaches on the outside edge of the shin bone (tibia) just below the knee joint.
