Arch Support for Runner&#8217;s Knee<\/h3><p>Poor arch support is the root of many of the problems that we suffer in the legs, <a

lower extremity as being one big sheet of connective tissue.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportschirosanfran.com\/foot-pain-sf\/\">Inadequate medial arch<\/a> support causes most people to pronate (feet roll in when walking\/running) which rotates the hips and knees putting excess stress on many soft-tissues including the ITB.\u00a0 Excess stress leads to inflammation.\u00a0 Tendinitis literally means<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportschirosanfran.com\/bursitis-tendinitis-sf\/\"> inflammation of the tendons<\/a>.<\/p><h3>3. <a

flaw.\u00a0 It crosses too many joints for us to stretch it effectively, and it gets tight from just about everything that you do.\u00a0 The list of activities that aggravate the IT Band is extensive:\u00a0 sitting, standing, walking, running, crouching, you get the idea.\u00a0 If you are breathing and not in a half-fetal position, your IT Band is probably getting tight.<\/p><p>The ITB is very hard to stretch (<a
