Oh shit I was wondering what I had. I got it from walking 8 hours a day on vacation. It didn't go away, but ostarine fixed it up. But it's came back again over a year later in similar conditions (on my feet all day for work, no sitting).

the relaxing of your muscles will help to ease the pain faster

I heard to limit sitting as that extends the ITB, resort to a primal sit (Deep squat) to also strengthen the hips.

Oh man. I had trouble with my IT band last spring.

Was in a rut couldn't run for like a month.
Ended up talking to my old mum.
She introduced me to her friend who was like this 65 year old ballerina. Fit as fuck. Looks like a skeleton stole someones skin but it was like 2 sizes too large and was now kinda saggy.

She showed me some granny stretching exercises and gave a old thick roll of cardboard to use as a roller. And this shit worked like a charm. Got my shit together in no time. Was able to run 5k in a week, 10 in two. And back to 20 in about a month.

>have now moved on to hip exercises and TFL massages with a tennis ball
These are great choices. I recommend doing a lot of one-legged hip exercises such as single leg deadlifts, splits squats, hip airplanes.
Also, while hip strengthening and stretching can be useful, it's mostly an overuse thing i.e. you did too much too soon. So when you return to running, make sure you ease into it, or it'll come right back.
