Iliotibial Band Injuries treated with Prolotherapy

Iliotibial Band Injury and Prolotherapy
Another common athletic injury to the tendons of the knee is a strained iliotibial band. This causes pain on the outside of the knee just below the joint line. It is caused by strong exertion of the muscle during the sport or during training. Specifically the iliotibial band rubs anteriorly and posteriorly over the lateral femoral condyle during running.

Running, in particular, causes pain to this area located on the lateral (outside) of the knee joint.

It is temporarily relieved by resting, but, thankfully, it is relieved permanently with Prolotherapy!

This is one of the major differences between Prolotherapy and traditional sports medicine. Rest permanently cures nothing, temporarily yes, but permanently no. Prolotherapy, on the other hand, permanently cures sports injuries!

Here Dr. Ross Hauser injects a patients IT band with Hackett-Hemwall Prolotherapy used at Caring Medical in Oak Park, IL.
