This muscle is called the TFL and runs from the pelvic hip area to the outside of your knee. If your hip and or side of the thigh along with your knee bothers you, it may be a TFL issue. Poor movement of the sacroiliac joint in the pelvis can cause this muscle to work incorrectly.
Chiropractic adjustments, muscle work and cold laser therapy will help fix the problem. You may notice pain while going up and down stairs or sitting in the car. The cause can be varied, possibly not exercising and prolonged sitting, improper warm up or cool down post activity.
